So it's been a very interesting year 2019 in the watch market.
We saw these Hulks go all the way up to $15,500.
It's crazy to me.
I mean, I had one of these watches myself three years ago and I almost had to give it
away at $7,500.
They just didn't sell.
Guys were coming to buy it and their wives would tell tell, “I don't like it cuz it's
all green!”
I mean, it's one of those watches that in theory when you would see it in the display
case if you didn't like it, you just kind of would be like, “Meh,” but however,
when you try it on and you put it on your wrist, it gives you a whole different feel
about it, but that's when that watch was really just a thousand dollars more than the standard
Submariner.
This year we've seen the prices go crazy!
Discontinued, special edition, the Hulk.
It's been nuts!
So the question is has it finally lost its strength?
I would definitely say that the hype has simmered down a bit.
I wouldn't go as far as saying that the market with the Hulk is crashing, but I would say
that it's simmered down a little bit from $15,000 down to the $13,000 $14,000 range.
I for one have not been able to sell a single one at over $14,000.
They just, the buyers are not there.
They're not there.
The market price might be set there because that's just what it is, you know?
They've been out there going a ton of money for the last eight months.
I think whoever bought one at that price is still fine.
I don't think that it's a big deal.
I think the problem is the guys that were selling them unworn for $16,000, $17,000.
I mean, if you wanna buy it and put it away stickered, more power to you!
But, I would say that now coming into the fall of 2019, the Hulk has died down a little
bit.
I don't expect to see the crash in prices that occurred in the summer with the Nautiluses.
That's not the case with this.
The thing is is that when they were at the strongest point in the mid teems or the upper
teens, people were asking if it was going to continue to rise.
That is what I don't see happening.
I think that they're gonna be pretty safe and steady in the low teens, anywhere from
$13,000 or $14,000, I think that's where they're gonna end up being.
There isn't a lot of them out there, and several people gobbled them up in the market and they
just pretty much stashed them away, so there's not many out there.
I feel like there's obviously gonna be way other pieces that are gonna be burned first
before the Hulk, so the question will still remain and we'll be having to see, can it
regain and hold its strength?
Now, I for one totally love this watch.
I think that I've always liked it all green.
Guys have always said, “Man, but it's all green, you know?
I don't know if I could match with everything.”
Look, everybody's got their different style.
I'm not one of those that everything has to match like that.
I like the green.
It stands out.
It looks special.
I've liked the green way before green became the new blue.
It's just always stood out different, just like the GMT yellow gold with the green dial,
I liked the green dial better.
It just looks good, you know?
So I've always like this watch and I kind of regret selling mine.
This is besides the whole hype that they went up.
Just because I like the watch, imagine you had it.
You got rid of it for $7,000 and now you can't really replace that.
You gotta pay double that, so that's the only regret that I do have, is that I like it.
I want it in the stable and I would have to like really cough up some coins for it at
at the moment.
So did the Hulk finally lose its strength?
No!
I think the pre-workout just wore out.
