Hulk & Batman please..

gummy · 25 January 2017, 05:28 PM

I would say....yes

HL65 · 25 January 2017, 08:19 PM

Do what I did and get all 3.

You can't lose with any of them. The DSSD Blue is a great weekend watch and the others better daily wears. Actually the BLNR is the most versatile of the 3 and if I could only have one it would likely be that. Good luck with your decision.

Psmith · 25 January 2017, 08:46 PM

D-Blue, no doubt

Ruud Van Driver · 25 January 2017, 09:21 PM

Much depends on what you want the watch for. Is it a one and only or is it part of a collection?

I have all three and the one I would recommend is the LVc; that's my zombie apocalypse watch. I guess the BLNR would be the safest and most practical option but if you want safe and practical, then buy a rain coat. Go for the Sub; it's an incredible piece and the dial is mesmerising.

Best thing you can do is wander down to your AD and try them all on and see which one screams "buy me, buy me" the loudest.

Good luck, great dilemma to have

I will agree that two is better than one in this situation. Get the BLNR and the Hulk.

yunach · 25 January 2017, 10:22 PM

Go for the deep blue first, then hulk, then BLNR.
You had the DSSD and didnt mind the size.
If size is an issue, go for the Hulk hands down.

travisb · 25 January 2017, 10:23 PM

Having had all three, my clear choice is the D-Blue.

brandrea · 25 January 2017, 10:42 PM

I'm pretty certain that once you try them on, you'll definately know which one speaks loudest to you.

In my case if forced to choose one, and IF it were my one and only, it would be the BLNR. More versatile than the DBlue or LVC IMO.

For pure enjoyment and casual weekend wear nothing beats the DBlue.

Let's us know how things go Friday. Good luck

X2 and I have owned all 3 of those. D blue wins by a mile.

encarter13 · 25 January 2017, 11:30 PM

If I am understanding you correctly, you can get a Hulk and the BLNR or just a Deepblue? How is that even a questions!! Two watches > One Watch, especially with your options. Hulk and BLNR are two of my favorites!

braningan · 25 January 2017, 11:41 PM

Get the deep blue first . I heard they going to discontinue any time soon . But not sure .

desidd · 25 January 2017, 11:42 PM

Thanks everyone for the great responses. I have put down a good deposit on all 3. I will go to the AD and see what is singing to me the loudest. At one point I was into big watches and had several Breitlings, Omegas, and a Panerai. Sold most of my collection because I had lost interest in collecting. Now I want a nice 4-5 watch collection that can be worn regularly. Wish the budget would allow for all 3, but that's not going to happen (at least not on Friday).

RMC12 · 26 January 2017, 12:20 AM

First choice would be the Hulk for me!! Then BLNR later if you can swing it.

COPPERSHOT · 26 January 2017, 12:40 AM

Deep blue

Castiel · 26 January 2017, 12:46 AM

Try them out and see which one you like best. No wrong choice on any of these watches but only the right fit for you. Best of luck.

MrGMT · 26 January 2017, 12:49 AM

All great watches but deep sea would be my pick I think then GMT then hulk

WEST HAM ROLEX · 26 January 2017, 12:58 AM

The James Cameron would be my choice
But love the GMT BLNR

Hulk, sorry, doesn't do anything for me

Danny83 · 26 January 2017, 01:01 AM

D blue

brettpaul · 26 January 2017, 01:17 AM

BLNR as an only watch, but the Deep Blue (and Deep Sea in general) may be on its last legs!

watchwatcher · 26 January 2017, 01:37 AM

My advice in any choice dilemma is to pick the more expensive one, so, in this case, I would go with the D-Blue. And you did say you loved the DSSD you had previously.

Of course, if you are a frequent traveler, then the BLNR makes sense, too.

You can't really go wrong with any of them.

AK797 · 26 January 2017, 02:54 AM

D-Blue for me.

sea-dweller · 26 January 2017, 03:39 AM

Hulk!

rollee1 · 26 January 2017, 04:15 AM

Hulk gets my vote.

DBlue is amazing but it's not the size, being taller and fatter it gets dings much easier, especially reaching in and out of zippers on bags.

cda555 · 26 January 2017, 04:27 AM

Since you loved the DSSD, the Deep Blue gets my vote.

imperio · 26 January 2017, 04:31 AM

I would stretch my wallet and go for all three, if I were in your shoes. Push for a bigger discount if you got all three pieces maybe?

And1dre · 26 January 2017, 04:44 AM

Can't go wrong with any but BLNR gets my vote.
