Dream GMTIIc bezel colour? Green?

Hi Folks... so I spend a lot of time gazing into my GMTIIc and wonder if it weren't black/gunmetal mirrored... what color would I prefer it in?

In reading some of the history of the GMT, I've seen it in an all-blue bezel. google it! Blue ceramic is possible since it's on the new YM.

Now, what if they took some of the LV vibe and used that british racing green around the bezel? That might float my boat...

Now, what about you?

What's your dream GMTIIc bezel color?

Any of you photoshop cowboys want to take a crack at doctoring some pics up?

To be honest, I just dream that a blue and red pepsi ceramic bezel will be released someday.

That would be a relief to see, I hope the Pepsi design is not gone for good.

this link is to a Graham watch - saw it with black / british racing green bezel in Watch Times - can't find pic on net but it looked great and pretty sure the bezel is ceramic

Imho, the coolest GMT bezel insert is the "Coke" (oops, sorry, Larry!) ehh...black/burgundy one!

The sprite is very mean looking (which i like)... it should be the watch of US SPECIAL OPS. now, could someone photoshop the entire bezel to be green?
