Congrats on both the BLNR and Explorer, stan. Did you get the Batman via AD or grey? AD prices are all at a premium :(

Tough to say in 18 years which one if these will be a truly iconic watch.

As on today I would say the Hulk followed by the batman.

Already have LV in the collection, maybe next should get Hulk into collection.

I thought LV and Hulk refer to the same watch?

LV actually stands for Lunette Verde (green bezel). LN is Lunette Noir (black bezel). 16610LV is also known as Kermit, whilst the 116610LV is known as Hulk. BLNR is Bleu/Noir (blue/black).

if it is a heirloom piece, you should always go for the classics. And when in doubt, follow your heart.

Ps - well done on the new heirloom BLNR. It's a classic
