The green dial really stands out, in a good way though. Probably the same reason I like the 116718.

You're right. I like both, but I think I'd prefer the lighter colored one if I'm honest. If you look at the BLNR on the site, the blue is also much lighter than when in hand. Additionally, all the stainless steel bands are very light in color. I suppose they're doing this on purpose.

Fabulous. Can u post more picks of the green dial popping n the sun or with a light shining on it? Your pictures capture the darkness of the green when light isn't shining yg ukniw it pops with an amazing royal emerald green in the light!

I've never been a fan of yellow gold but this combo is a winner for sure, the dial color looks amazing with YG. Congratulations and enjoy!

My watchmaker says that these kind of watches will only become more expensive after 5-10 years...is this true?
