I have a S19 Hulk, which I love. However, I’ve seen this Franken Hulk for sale and I’m considering pulling the trigger. But, is it much of an upgrade? Is it really worth it, what do you guys think?

VSF Base (new batch), ZF Dial, Gen Xtal, Gen Datewheel, Gen Hands, Gen Crown, Gen Gaskets, Rehaut Polished, Serviced & Waterproofed.

Its an upgrade for sure and if you like it go for it.

But hulk frankens are always difficult, without gen dial and gen insert I wouldn't even call a watch that much of a franken as you mostly will be still looking the same rep parts whenever you check your wrist. These two parts are the main thing that make a franken a franken and really set it apart from a factory rep.

Some time ago I remember seeing here full hulk franken for sale but it was almost the cost of a gen LN.

That’s exactly my concern, the differences are negligible in the grand scheme. Okay, granted the crystal and hands are a decent upgrade but I’m not entirely convinced a ZF dial is an upgrade on the latest batch VSF dial and this is exactly the thing which makes the Hulk special!

If I didn’t have a S19 Hulk I probably would pull the trigger but what it’s costing me I could get a clean DJ41, Batman and Pepsi so I think on this occasion, I’ll pass!

Thanks for the response, I’m a sucker for impulse purchases and sometimes I need a different perspective to see sense, ha!
