....the Coke is still my fave of this bunch

I do love the look of the Sub ND, BLNR and Hulk but they just never feel that comfortable on my wrist. I've noticed the wider lugs on their cases dig into my wrist bone whenever I move my hand.

The Coke on the other hand - fits "like a glove".

I had that problem with my 114060. 124060 fixed the lugs digging into wrist problem for me, but depends on the wrist.

I'll take the Hulk if it's too uncomfortable for you.

Well you’re certainly qualified to give an opinion.

When an oyster bracelet is right sized for your wrist it’s a great experience

Never found any of the new reference to be comfortable aside from the Daytona. The huge glidelock clasps are uncomfortable. Say want you want about being able to make quick adjustments, but I’ve never had to adjust the old bracelets on the fly ever.
