Icon10 My Hulk needs a partner. Help me please!

I'm trying to choose my 2nd watch to go with my Hulk. It's between the Datejust 41(white dial/smooth bezel/ jubilee), or the Explorer (214270). I love both watches so I'm having a hard time deciding. Which one would you pick to go with this beauty?

DJ41 but go fluted bezel. Smooth bezel will show the scratches, jubilee won't...ever!

I'd go DJ41- bigger contrast to your sub, thus more versatility in the pair.

Dj for me, but either are great choices imo. I'd go fluted too.

I've heard they play well together with yachmasters and sea dwellers.

But of the two you chose as playmates, i'd pick a DJ41 as well so you have a complete opposite :)

Between those two, the DJ41 for sure. Great duo.

Eventually, you can then add a black DaytonaC for a superb trio.

Another vote for the DJ 41. A dressier option that can be worn casual as well.

Well I'm looking for a Hulk to go with my 114060 . . .

so sub no date would be my choice.

Tried on various DJ 41s & explorer last week. Explorers surprisingly did nothing for me.

The black sunburst DJ41 was beaut & so was the silver DJ41

I wasn't mad on the fluted bezel. Too glam for me, but thats personal choice.

My vote would be the DJ 41 between those two but even though I am a little biased, take a look at the Milgauss Z-Blue

Some nice black sunburst pics for the guy who was looking for pics before. Hopefully the TRF elves unite the two.
