I've tried both on and green gets my vote. In low light conditions the green looks black. In lighted conditions the gold with green accents is amazing imho.

Green will get old at some point. Black is timeless

I'm changing my mind, considering what I've learned about you, the green is right... It's so you and it'll be striking and different. It'll give you so much eye candy. Best of luck and cannot wait to see what you get regardless.

Thank you guys for an interesting read.....I'm leaning more towards green now...I've never been afraid of color...see what happens....gotta get the ball rolling and start my mission. Thanks everyone who chimed in. Might take awhile with my job getting in the way of free time....but I'll throw up some pics ASAP.

Forget the gold... Instead of paying for the gold , you can get these both and you'll have both black&green..

Both are great and I like seeing the green, but, if it were my watch, I would go black. Good luck with the choice.

That's one of the nicest pictures I've seen of the green dial 116718.

when you have decided you can then purchase a dial of the other colour and swap them around.

I agree. The green is not for every occasion. I am currently looking for a Black dial (dial only) to have both options.....
