Yes. Use the springbars from the 126710.

Here is a comparison of the Sub - 126610 vs 116610 envelopes.

You’re not being a hater. Before the hype back in 2015 everyone pretty much felt the same as evidenced by the green subs languishing in the AD cases.

Revisionist history at its best.

The LVc always sold to a premium to an LN Sub. So if the LVc “languished”, so did LN Subs. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

The hype phase impacted many watches…. What matters is that there are many watches out there for all tastes.

Be that as it may, the Hulk was one to the most flipped watches at the time. Just pointing out that that poster wasn’t being a hater by any means.



Feelings hurt at its best

I tested the length of the power reserve declared by the manufacturer. I put Hulk 116610LV with the 3135 engine into the rotator for two days, gave it 1800 revolutions on both sides, took it out, and on Wednesday morning at 06:51 I measured the time on the app. The watch stopped this morning at 06:38 - it worked for 47 hours 47 minutes, 13 minutes shorter than the manufacturer's 48-hour declaration. I don't feel worried. I will repeat the test again soon.

Nice photos. It's a shame this was discontinued, the dial in particular I think is stunning.

SD43 and Hulk are the best modern divers Rolex have ever produced.

Thank you all for your kind words. I love taking photos of my watches and then staring at them for hours. I guess every crazy person likes it. Here are my best photos of my past and present watches.
