Congrats! I've been looking at a Hulk myself. Really neat to see how it plays in the light.

Thanks Mike!! I definitely say go for it! Strange how I like the Hulk even more than Pepsi and Smurf.
Dial is better IMO, and while not gold, it is lighter weight, more comfortable and with brushed center links less prone to scratches and smudges.
Just a perfect SS Rolex!

I went to pick it up today and I have to say I am loving
it already. After owning a Smurf for almost a year, it is nice
once again having a comfortable but yet stunning Rolex SubC.

It's hard to say anything negative about my now lost Smurf,
it was a 10 month love affair and I have no regrets. My small
wrist just was not happy with how things were going.

But exactly 21 days later, I am reacquainted with a new Sub, one
I have never had before. I have owned 2 SS, 2 TT and a WG, now
I am back to SS, but with a beauty that rivals the WG.

The brushed center links are nice as is the lighter weight,
but what has me won over and constantly looking at the time is that Rolex "Green Gold" dial.
Oh man I love how it dances in the light. Only the PP 5711 dial I owned briefly played with light
so wonderfully.

This is a bona fide beater and tool watch for the ages.
At home in any terrain and any condition, which can surprisingly get cleaned up and dress up nicely as well.

Although I am looking to upgrade my collection, there is no way I can be without my most favorite Rolex - The Oyster Perpetual Submariner

Congratulations I don't think I will ever be without a Sub C in my collection, however I did say over and over I would never get rid of my 16710 GMT Coke and then flipped it for the LVC. No regrets though.

I am doing well. Been busy with other things in life, so I have not been on TRF as much as I would like. I trust you are well too.

The LV is a truly special reference. When I see incomings like yours, I start to miss my LV.

Looks amazing!
I was able to try one of those one today and the green dial is awesome! A local jewelry store has a brand new in box with tags watch that someone traded in.
