Go all out for Green (or not)?

Just wondering if anybody has collected(or aspires to collect) all the Rolex models with Green features. As far as I know the green features usually designate something special about the model and this may increase their desirability. I know with some models the green can polarise opinion( like the new green dialled Sub for eg and the original Sub LV). Personally I really like the green touches and have the Sub LV and the GMT Master II with green 24 hour hand. If it were within my means I'd love to have the collection. I'd be interested to hear what others think and what green models you have and why you love them.

I guess it depends upon your watch collection goals. If you want to be the ultimate Rolex collector, you should own all of the 50th Anniversary editions; plus a ton of other models.

If you are a Hulk or Green Lantern fanatic, maybe the green collection is for you. Personally I like as broad of a span of watches as possible, so only one "green Rolex" for me.

Love my LV Sub ... the green bezel makes it a bit more distinctive from normal black bezel Subs.

Yup its my fave too.. and now having seen the green dial Sub in the flesh it also looks inviting. I saw it side by side with the new black Sub and IMHO "blew it away" in the looks department.
