This is honestly the best Franken Hulk out there imo... Mark 2 💚
As I've said before, when it comes to the Hulk - No rep dial can compare to the Gen in direct sunlight.


Is this what you’re saying is a gen dial?

Hi guys !
I follow this thread since many months ! I’m a huge huge fan of the 116610LV and I’m preparing a crazy Franken project !
For me MK1 and MK2 are the best versions of hulk because they have some particular differences VS next Gen. I like the "300 m" dial and the double engraved / double line rehaut. There’s also the clasp particularity with these sanded part inside (polished since end of MK2 till now)
I’ve recently bought a VSF pre raid hulk because the dial was a MK2 BP dial rework with VSF index/markers for 3135 movement, very rare, almost impossible to find. The project consist of :

-Noob V9 904L case with DOUBLE LINE rehaut like MK1/2
-BP dial reworked
-Gen hands
-Gen DW
-Gen crown + tube
-Gen Crystal
-VS3135 movement
-clasp from Noob V6S reworked with sanded effect inside (where the Rolex logo is engraved) like MK1/2
-brushed bracelet
-gen bezel
-SpongeBob insert with PVD Platinum

I have almost collected all the parts ! Few weeks and I will keep you updated with this project !

It’s a mix of 4 watches and Gen parts to get one ! I don’t know if someone has already try to do something like this. I’m really curious to see the result !

Have a nice weekend Hulk lovers !

Amazing. It’s a beautiful watch and you’ve got much to be proud of. I had a couple of my reps with VS3235 movements frankened but I didn’t do the dial hands date wheel bezel and crystal done also. I gotta admit that I thought about it a time or two. Yours is a couple of pieces from having everything gen.
How good did your movement respond to the gen parts? Mine run a couple of seconds fast and tolerate position changes pretty good. The one I change to a 3230 didn’t like the gen train wheel bridge so I kept the rep.
Great looking watch

ZF has made even more improvements. I recently bought the ZF version and can honestly say that for what I spent, I am more than pleased.

I’d still go with the CF v5 one.. I think it’s a tad bit too bright green but still looks great overall with no mods done to it!

Yes, it is possible.
I swapped a Clean Submariner plate in my VSF 40mm black Submariner. (Due to a misaligned marker)
Ahh thanks yeah my vsf dial had misaligned markers as well so was thinking of switching it with the cf dial, may i know where did u source the cf hulk dial?
