Congrats on the watch and baby. The Sub is great to have with a small child - get it dirty and wash off easily, use the bezel to time naps or medication.

Purchased the hulk and fell in love with the glidelock which I am using to adjust the bracelet at least twice a day. Now just need to decide which one to keep, maybe both if I can convince myself it is an investment :). I'm in the thinking the prices will increase this year in the UK so will wait until then to decide which one to keep.


The glidelock is really great. Being able to fine tune the bracelet on the fly is a wonderful feature! I don't know if I could wear a watch on a bracelet without it now. The hulk is such a nice piece but I think the black is more versatile. Coming from the blue omega I wished I had a black watch at times. I do like to put the watch on a nato stark from time to time and blue made that a little challenging. Either way, hulk or ND, you can't go wrong!

Congrats on both your son and your new watch. I'm a big fan of getting Dad a "push present" too. And your choice of the Sub is so classic and fitting of the awesome occasion!

Thank you all for the very warm welcome!

I went back to the AD today and had their watchmaker switch my half link from the 12 o'clock side to the 6 o'clock side. Did wonders for the fit. Before I was at 5.5 links at 12 and 4 links at 6. Now I'm 5 at 12 and 4.5 at 6. Fits like a glove now!
