Watches you want to see once green

What’s a watch that you’d be interested in seeing in a green variant?

I’d personally buy a green Seamaster 300 diver if Omega released one. Green dial, bezel, and rubber strap.

You could always throw a rubber strap on this:

Here you go! I was playing with the replacing sub-indices on a 214270 this morning with the numerals from a DJ41.

I like it way more than I thought I would. Green seems like such a natural choice as another variant.

Never felt the itch for a green watch.

I neither like the Rolex Hulk (too shiny) nor the new Patek 5168 (too dull). Also don't like the green rubber strap for the Patek 5167 much, even before considering that it takes a few grand to get one... Black and brown are the better choices though less hot at this point in time...

Prefer pretty much all colors over green as a dial color - black, silver, blue, white, and even brown is better IMO...

Never was a fan of a green watch till Breitling introduced these.

While green is not near my first choice in a watch dial there have been some phenomenal choices for green dials.

Seiko 5 SNK805 was my one of my first mechanicals and only green dial but it's just a cool and cheap piece.

Love the IWC Pilots in green, specially the new Spitfires with the bronze cases.

Sinn made a limited edition 556a for japan with a green dial that would be about as perfect a military/field watch as there is.

Stretching it a bit but the Harrods Tudor with the Green Bezel is sublime to me.

Let me know if you want more stuff photoshopped

I would love a Rolex GMT with a black and green bezel, green GMT hand.
