    Thank you all for the kind words. It's indeed something, shall I say, different. One thing for sure, the next time someone asks if they can wear a sub with a suit.....I can certainly say, no way, unless you are wearing a green suit .

    Huge congratulations and wear it in the best of health!

    What a great collection you have.

    Cheers

    Yes, after a long search. Unless Rolex decides to launch the pepsi on SS, I don't think I can ever afford one.

    What were your thoughts on the "Batman"? I'm curious why Hulk beat Batman. Both are unique looking watches with great colors.
    Sounds like a battle between 2 of my favourite super heros.....

    I picked the Hulk based purely on its looks and, more importantly, I try to minimise any overlaps in my growing collection. I have mainly black and white dials, a maroon and an orange bezel, a pseudo-pepsi,a sporty black with red accent, and a small number of dress watches (again in white/ beige dial). Green is something I do not have, and when I tried it on, I really like it. However, it wasn't an easy choice because the "Batman" was also very attractive - a very close fight between the two. Who knows, the "batman" might still make its way into my collection, if the pepsi continues to be only on WG.

    Thanks Sherry. I must say that it partly your regular posts of the Explorer 2 (along with "C") that led me to also consider this. So, thanks.

    The green Rolex uses has a wonderful “Pop” to it! It’s striking in a very good way. Would look perfect at the golf club I believe!

    Congratualations!

    NIce. Love the Rolex green.

    Wish my wrist was manly enough to pull it off.
