I would want to wait until I see one in person but from the photographs, this one will be easy for me to skip. I very much prefer the YG Sub with its green color dial.

Did you mean the GMT in YG? I agree with you about wanting to see the watch in person before passing judgement.

Nope. Particularly on RG, WG would work better, but still would choose the blue IMO.

No. I'm a big fan of the LV and I think some of theother green models look nice but I think they missed the mark with this particular shade.

I don't like the color green as an apparel or accessory but I do think this green is subdued and toned down to allow it to not be so vibrant green. For that reason I think it does work and more appealing than the other Rolex green they use.

Seems to go well with the gold, but I'd like to see some live pics.

Based on the press photos, I would say no. But on the live wrist shot, the colors of the RG and green dial appear softer and looks quite nice. Would have to see it in person to be sure.
