We had similar thought processes regarding how to mix up the colors a bit.
With the SubC LV, it only made sense to get the black dial GMTII. You just reversed the procedure. Good call
Yep! Mixing and matching adds variety :)

Here are a few more to contribute to the enabling. Mike (Kilyung) I think your black needs a brother! Ken (Steelerfan) I can't recall seeing a GMT IIC in your line up, might as well go YG verde! Most of the time the dial looks very close to black, but the green shows it's color often enough.

Very nice Matt...Really liking that dial! No GMT IIC in my collection. You never know what the future holds but for now I am quite content with collection. If I were to add one this would certainly be on the short list though!

Even though the black dial gets maximum votes and most folks have a proclivity for the same, some of the pics I saw by Painter and a couple of other members were the coup de grace that made me make up my mind :)
Now that has to be the best green/gold GMT pic I've seen as of yet!

ConGratS!
