What happen to hulk

[Watchlover4789]

Recently noticed the discont hulk prices have been growing pretty much lately, what really causes it? Isit becus of the sunburst green dial?

[HMHM]

There was an auction back in December where the Hulk was sold for a ridiculous sum... $94500....

[just1time]

yawwwwnnn...

[cascavel]

Yes, it's the mesmerizing dial. Maybe only one hundred thousand in existence so it's rare.

Been hiding under a rock?

I remember:

Several years the price creeping up Q1 due to speculation of discontinuation, year after year.

When it finally did get discontinued, some of the YouTube personalities scoffing at its jump in price, saying it would NOT hold at 20, it was a low teens watch at best.

Well, there you have it. It’s a stunner, and although I love the 126610LV (I own one), the hulk is something extra special.

All prices are going wild, but this reference I think will hold strong for years to come.

A quick search on this forum or any social media platform would indicate that all ss sport model Rolexes are skyrocketing.

Well as has been clearly documented by Avengers End Game, Bruce Banner found a way to reconcile himself with hulk to marry brawn and brains resulting in a more refined version of the Hulk mode which became popular enough that everyone wanted selfies with the Hulk. And then...oh wait, you mean the watch?

Drat! You beat me to it

Don't worry...it will be back at some point. They have to have different things to release at the shows every year. They may release it this year to play off some of the hype of the green 5711.

I’m not sure that’s what drives design for Rolex. The only one I can think of where Rolex did something kind of like that was when they brought the Pepsi back as a WG watch, then Later brought it back in stainless steel?!

I know it doesn't...but Green has always been Rolex's color and now Patek is getting all the hype from the Green...

You are absolutely right. I’ve been trying to buy the Green dial Daytona for a few years now so for me Rolex green is good

[walkman2727]

discount on hulk? I just came home from watches of Switzerland in NY. They have a used hulk available in show case for $26500 plus tax, it runs a little over 28k. I got mine online back in 2019 for 12k, 3k over msrp, my heart was pounding ... now again :)

[batmanhulk]

Surely this can’t go on
Could it really go higher this year?
People would surely move onto the Kermit ?

[Skaramanga]

It's a collector's item, she is splendid and has something special …

Yes, it will still gain value, everyone wants one in their collection. It will reach 30k without any worries...

I thought it was already right at 30?

[bob sims]

Just checked a "trusted seller":
A FOUR YEAR OLD one is over 27k
A six year old OUT OF WARRANTY one is 26.575k
My guess is, an unworn newer one will be at, or over 30k. If they can get one!

[dialguy48]

Theres already a handful of late model ('21,'20,'19) Hulks on Chrono for over $30k. Most are pushing high 20's.

This will be a $50k watch in the next 3 years.

[1665fan]

All time classic….will only keep rising to the moon…ive got a 2018 or I would be looking myself

I can confirm they are.

[WatchesNBlondes]

Hopefully they come out with it again.

You are 7 years too late…

Here’s a 2015 ad for a hulk. Priced to sell at $7,695 and the seller had to bump it multiple times

Then the hype kicked in…

They were not incredibly popular. There were people that loved the green but in general, they were easy to get. Then the hype monster got a hold of it, they discontinue it, and people lose their minds.
