KERMIT or SUB C black or Hulk?

Help me decide which would be the best choice? I sold my HULK previously but miss it to some extent. On the fence between these three.

Any Sub C over a Kermit. Black Sub if it's your only watch and Hulk if you have others.

Get the 116613. I know the stainless black sub is supposed to be the most versatile watch but in my opinion it looked like crap with a navy blazer with gold buttons. Two-tone is the way to go my friend. Plus it adds some color

So you are having second thoughts on the Hulk you already sold?

If you can find a 16610LV in good condition and with a complete set and the price is right go for it.

All three are great watches. I don't think I would be much help here.

OP, how many of these threads?

Black Sub C or Pepsi
Hulk or Black Sub C
Kermit or Hulk or Black Sub C

...not sure the opinions here are going to help. You mentioned you got rid of your Hulk because you got sick of the color. If that was your only issue with it, get the black version.

I had both Hulk and Kermit at the same time but could only keep one. Kermit won by a hair. I love the dial, ceramic bezel, and glidelock on Hulk but not the square shape of the maxicase. Kermit is a bit more balanced, elegant, and versatile. Also the ability to change the bezel to turn Kermit into a black Sub is what nailed the decision for me.

Hmm. I say get the black ceramic; I miss mine.

I have the Hulk however and would not trade that for a black ( I would only add to be side by side).

Kermit, if you ever feel sad, you can flip it without too much of a loss...
