So I typically hate ceramic subs but man am I falling in love with the Hulk! I'm contemplating wether to just get a stock V5 or a BK but that's another discussion. I'm trying to figure out how hard it's gonna be to track down a gen ceramic insert or if there's an aftermarket insert with the correct color. Any help is appreciated.

V5 Hulk

Im in the same boat. Love the hulk and it will be my next purchase but for now trying to be good. Even the 21j from Stan and narika looks good.
I know how I am and I think the color of the bezel insert is gonna annoy the piss outta me. Lol. The good news is if I get one and don't like Rolex reps are the easiest sale in M2M.

It's like winning lottery to get it.I got one with gen hulk dial. And sold it for so much money it was insane I wish I had not sold them though. Because if I ever find a v3 I could of build a hulk super franken
I tried to order a Hulk today, I am having a tough time getting the payment to the TD. It's the most I've ever paid for a REP, $403.00 shipped. I am curious how much is a GEN dial?

So at that price I'm assuming it's the V5? Please post pics when you get the watch.
Yes V5 watch, only reason I am willing to put that amount of money into a REP. Toro said buy the 2836 and save a 180.00 over the cost of the clone 3135.
Since the v5 watch is super lumed, I can justify paying extra for the V5. I would guess that a lume update would cost 150.00.
I will be happy to post photos when the watch arrives. I've always had the Jones for Rolexes. But, when I look in my watch box the majority of my watches are Omega Rep's and Gen's.

It's really not that bad. I've had $2500 Frankens lol. Please do send the pictures and BTW the 3135 clone is supposed to be problematic so you made the right move. That's the movement in getting unless I go through BKof course.

For me I'd get a BK, that's because I won't mod it (maybe a gen crystal and crown, which is more than enough for me).
If you're planning some high mods. Then get a stock and do the work. I've seen an insert before on the bay, but they're really hard to come by, rare species.

Yeah, I thought about buying a BK hulk. I think his price for a Hulk is 635.00.
I know that 400.00 bucks is not that much for a watch. I just have a hard time paying that much for a REP, sorta take the joy out of owning the REP. I have a couple of GEN's and I don't think I could pay the cost of a GEN now after owning REP's.
