What if the 116718 was double green...

I have a black 116718 which is a fantastic watch, and every now and again the green dial version catches my eye. As much as I love the green dial, I find myself wondering 'what if' about a green bezel too. So why not give it a try in photoshop I thought... Kind of, a Royal Hulk

Nice work in Photoshop, but not sure about the green Bezel... What other variations can you do on PM?

Maybe double green on SS model...?

I don't think it will be on the GMTc, if anything they might make a YG or RG Hulk. On the GMTc they might yet make a RG or YG Coke, can't see it being in platinum as the PepC is the flagship model for me.

It looks nice, but I think the green dial and black bezel YG GMT is fine the way it is.

I'm suprized about the reactions to this. I've seen many more outlandish conceptions here that have been more accepted. I personally like it. I don't think I'd buy it but I like it better than the original. Just my 2 cents.

Both versions, as well as original look great.
Different options for all to choose.

I prefer it just the way it is. In my opinion, it'd be too much green.

Too much green and with the LV I doubt Rolex would come out with another green ceramic bezel and dial ref. But I do think a rose gold Sub with serti dial would look amazing.. Can anyone Photoshop that ? Please ?
