Other green faced watches?

Since I've been on the waitlist for a hulk for a year, anyone have any other recs for a green faced watch? The khaki aquanaut is too much. I saw a reasonable bell and Ross but can't find out which one it was.

Anything anyone likes?

Seiko Sarb017. Great looking watch and iconic in its own right!

Obviously out of your price range, and mine, but I really love the Japanese limited edition version of the current AP Royal Oak Perpetual calendar with green dial.

Seiko Alpinist for around $425 is a good choice. Versitile too, and inexpensive enough to wear virtually anywhere. Have the ltd ed blue dial version and enjoy it. Amazon has it at:

On the affordable end of the spectrum, there's this.

Kentex Marineman II, green MOP, 188pcs ltd edition

I'm getting +2 s/d from its regulated NH35A.

Thanks for all the great recs!

Still getting the hulk but was/am looking for a 3-10k range watch for the meantime.

Seiko MM SLA019. Really like mine as it has been my DD for the past year.

The Oris Aquis Green is a beautiful watch. It has the smoothest winding ETA movement I have ever experienced.

There are some nice green watches out there. Plenty to look at. But no substitute for the LV. There is no such thing.

Like the Daytona the best



Then the day-date olive dial



Like the old GMT but probably wouldn't buy it



Don't really know of many other green watches I like, apart from the Patek Khaki aquanaut as mentioned, then there's the Oris/Tissot and IWC. But the IWC just like other watches can't seem to do the green dials like Rolex can.
