Love them both! Don’t think you can go wrong with either. To me the next watch to round out the collection would be a GMT. The green on the Hulk is truly stunning, but I always had a hard time matching clothing. In the end whichever sings to you more and with you having had both whichever you feel will scratch the itch the most : )

That's a shame as I was an "all steel" man until I got my TT Rootbeer in March this year. Since then, I've really appreciated the whole TT look & value they represent & there is no truer icon than the Bluesy.

Blro is probably the best looking pro model. Plus you have a dove watch already with the sd4k

I have both and love them equally, both of them should be in Rolex collection.

I would go for the Hulk now and wait for Pepsi at your AD.

OP - I had the Hulk and it became tiresome “fast”. The whole green watch trend has a finite sell-buy date. I picked up the newer 41mm LV since it doesn’t have the overkill dial.

BLRO is far more versatile.

I actually don’t think the hulk has a sell by date. As long as Rolex doesn’t make it again soon exactly the same, it should age nicely as a unique piece.

Tough choices, can't go wrong with either. But with a discontinued model, the sooner the better, no?

I vote for 126710BLRO on Jubilee, since you already have a diver with brushed Oyster bracelet and chronograph with polished center link Oyster.

As both a value proposition and better-looking more fun watch to wear, the Hulk for the easy win.

Thanks to all for the messages - I make it around 25 votes to 12 for the Pepsi…

Just need to get the purchase timing right!
