submariner 116610lv question

Recommended Posts

hi. i purchased a so called V7 hulk from toro about a year ago and i was bitterly disappointed with the insert colour but the rest of the watch was fab!

i  now see a host of good quality hulk reps from VRF, ARF, JF and Noob. there is a so called v8 hulk from noob with what appears to be a brighter green insert.

can someone please recommend one of these Huk subs with a decent colour insert?

many thanks!

V8 is a V7 with a better insert. Best and easiest for you is to contact a TD of your choice and ask if they can source the updated bezel insert... voila ;)

circa $50 as opposed to $400

From my experience, 2836 movement has the dark bezel. 3135 movement has the brighter green bezel, but you need to be very careful and stress to the TD you want the bright bezel, some have called it V8 others V7S

What are the options for a new hulk/ 116610LV bezel insert on the noob clones?
I was after a locolouis one but think he has stopped doing them at the moment?

I've been on these forums for years and I can tell you that no-one will tell you that any of the inserts are perfect.

Even if one make and batch are considered close the next batch will be considered as bad and you never know which batch you are going to get.

It's all a crapshoot I'm afraid.

Good luck!

Yes looks good but you get what you pay for (usually).

The movement also matters which is the key factor in the price difference but it’s a function of your budget too.
