Can't decide!

So I went to visit an ad today and now I'm really confused. I decided I'm not going the 116613lb route so I have narrowed it down to the hulk and the exp2 but then the sales lady says to me "hold on sir, I have something in the back for you to try on you might like"
So now I'm undecided

The Green does look good....but I would probably go GMT out of those 3.
I'm not really a fan of the Exp unless it was the 2nd or 3rd watch in a collection to change it up a bit.

That's just me.

So...go hit the lottery....get that GMT...then add the Green next month...then add the Exp a month later.

See that was easy

Rolex does a magnificent sunburst so if you are sure you don't want the Bluesy dial, I mean really really sure, then I'd go for the LVc.

Toss up LV or BLNR both great choices. Only you can decide though so best of luck on the decision! Cheers,

GMT Bluesy! I wish I had waited to get that instead of the black.

I'm fortunate to have the hulk and the tt blue sub. Despite only just getting the tt sub i adore the hulk its such a beautiful watch. It is incredibly hard to choose a fav between blue and green but i will go green.

As for the GMT, it really is a stunner but i'm smitten with my GMT m2 coke/pepsi - its a much different watch, the case is thinner / lighter and the bracelet is the old style so quite light too (not as good!) but its a very comfortable, very versatile and very good looking watch in the old shape. So old GMT wins over new gmt for me.

Leaving, the hulk victorious. I really wouldn't discount the blue tt sub. Its spectacular but as i don't wear gold its probably given the hulk the edge for me.

Normally I would go for the GMT but your wrist shots leave only one option:
LV

Don't really like any of them. I suppose out of the three I'd go Exp2.
