Go for it, worst case scenario you sell it further down the road.
Good luck! |

Thanks everybody for the feedback. I recently like the LV more and more but simply not sure that it's a keeper; and I can't agree more to "Roll the Lex" that the LN is a "go anywhere, do anything" piece.

Should I trade my SubC Date with SubC LV?
Its variety, the LVc is a very different looking watch, I like mine a lot but its not an everyday timepiece for me.
You should do the trade if you like green👍 |

I've had both and if I were to buy one of the two today, it would be the LVC. To echo John's comment: "there are a sea of black subs". I think we could all name a few friends with a black sub, but there are far fewer 'Hulks' it the wild.
Having a BLNR, you do not necessarily need the versatility of the LN, and the LVC would be a wonderful contrast. Just my 2 cents, I hope it helps.... |

I think the BLNR gives you a splash of color. I'd honestly consider flipping the sub for something with a white dial. Maybe a DJII, Exp II, or Daytona. |

Get the Hulk. The BLNR already has black dial. So you are not really having no black dials if you switch your SubC.

I would not. Keep the SubC and then, buy a Hulk at a later date!

I would keep the SubC and buy the LV when I could afford it.

If it's me, I'd keep the classic Sub date. That's a heckuva pair with BLNR!

I'd look at the 2 Subs individually and get (or keep) whichever you like more by itself. Not what would go best with the BLNR.

Why not stick with the standard? If more color will make you happy of course go for the buzz. In truth they both function the same so as watches go they're pretty equal.

thinking about this some more, the best answer isn't a modern duo, but, rather, a trio.

I bought a BLNR to go with my LVC and think they compliment each other fantastically. I would definitely do it if I were you. Although buying the black SubC was never an option for me in the first place. I always wanted something a little different. IMO they are the two best looking SS sports models!

I would do it, hulk is one of the most beautiful pieces Rolex had ever made IMO. Plus you have already owned a black dial. Go for it, you won't regret.

Do it. The LV is definitely the most special Sub
