Title: Rolex submariner ceramic hulk
Post by: Watched on February 25, 2018, 06:35:04 PM
I heard that hulk got some different by batch

Is that the wording different at the dial?

What exactly did you hear? One batch angrier than the other?  ;D

Don't think anything significant than the usual font tweaking they do...

Just some minor changes to the font being slightly bolder. Placements are a bit different as well on the 'Oyster Perpetual Date'.
The 'f' has changed and so has the '=' spacing.
Btw this is a 2018 Hulk, afaik it's the same from last year.

Heard people said the older batch more collectable

But don't know the reason
Also heard there's some different between 300m wording

Superficial variations in font size:

This will most certainly start another collectors' frenzy 40 years later, pretty much like the matte dials of the 70's / 80's GMT and Subs .....

Hulk will be collectible perhaps another 10 years later or when it phases out, get a Kermit instead if you want collectibles . To be honest , all new subs or gmts can be bought new easily since they are still in production , perhaps just a slight premium you need to pay in some model !
