Sub LV and OP41 Green Dial

Is the 12 series Sub LV and OP41 green dial too much green for a simple four watch collection? The other two watches are a GMT CHNR and a vintage Day-Date champagne dial.

No, for the following reasons:
1 You only wear one watch at a time, so you are the only one that will see them all together.
2 If you like green watches, yours is the only opinion that matters. I like having a variety, but I also like blue, and if I owned multiple watches with blue dials and or bezels, its because that's what I like.
3 The fact that you already own other non green watches makes it easier to wear a non-green watch if you don't feel in a green mood that day.

Enjoy what you enjoy!

I don’t think so. It’s your collection and you like what you like. Green is my favorite color and I’ve often thought of having both myself.

Not at all. They're two very different watches. Wear what you like.

All good. One has a black dial as well so not a green fest for me. I own both those watches too. Love them both.

It works but I’d probably switch one out. For me, the OP green for OP turqoise.

Build it as you would.

Everyone has their own tastes.

My dream 4 watch collection would probably feature neither and up to 2 Rolexes. That’s just preference.

I'm going to go against the grain here. If it were my 4 piece collection, I'd only do one of them.

I have both and say they are fine together, in fact I love having them both in the collection.

Too much green is not a thing in my view

Not at all. As others have said, you only wear one at a time. i personally love green, so I have 3 out of 8 watches green (including OP41 and Hulk, DJ41 mint motif being the other).
