living with colour

wondering if those of you with the colourful rolexes eventually get bored of them. i'm assuming if you've a multi-watch collection it's a non-issue, but how about those of you with just one watch? for those that've moved on, how long until you got sick of it? i've never owned a colourful one, but am very intrigued by the hulk and kermit, as well as the new rootbeer gmt. the only one that's never really done it for me is the smurf. really love the green and cherry dd's, as well as any of the old stella dials!
of course photos are encouraged!

Waiting for my green Oyster Perpetual to arrive, don't think I'd ever get bored of the colour, green is my favourite colour.
Own a few black dialed watches, some silver/white dials, so there is enough variety.

the only way i would consider these would be if my collection was large enough for it so yeah for me number of watches matter. Im at the point now where a pepsi or a hulk would make sense as an occasional wear piece.

I wore a Pepsi for 15 years and never got tired of it. In fact, it was the color that made me happy each day.

10 years with bluesy as a one and only daily watch. One can never get tired of that sunburst dial.

A 16610LV or 16710 can be made all black quickly and cheaply. I used to wear a yellow dialled, black rubber bezel sporty Reebok thing without even thinking about it. Obviously not with a suit though.
