Sub and Hulk

Interested if anyone has both, or feel they are too similar. I have a y series sub which I love, but there is something about the hulk.

I have a sub and the LVc. I enjoy wearing both even though from a functionality perspective, they are equal.

If it were me I'd buy a GMT or a SkyD first before buying 2 of the exact same watch with only different colors. If you already have a vast collection then some overlap is ok but purchasing the same model in a small collection seems redundant to me. My 2c for what its worth.

i tried the 116610LV and the 114060. The Sub ND, didn't stand a chance against the LVC. I eventually sold it as it wasn't getting the wrist time it deserved. So for me they couldn't coexist.

This one however is a different story. These work together beautifully...

I have both the subC and LVc
I feel they compliment eachother! Similar on the inside, totally different on the outside
The sunburst on the LV, the splash of color really compliments the classic subC model

Have both and a BLNR. All three get worn frequently and love each for their own reasons. Hard to go wrong with either but having both makes choosing which to wear, fun.

I'm not an owner, but would never consider having both at the same time. You're buying the exact same watch in a different colour.

My financial means and (self-imposed) collection spots are limited, so I wouldn't use the two spots for watches with so much overlap.

Same setup here! SubD gets least amount of wrist time, think its too similar to the BLNR. Thinking about flippng it for an EX 2 Polar or a Pepsi (if I ever get my hands on one )
