Are there any green-gold watches?
I recently learned that it’s possible to create a green gold alloy, but I can’t seem to find any examples of watches that have been made with green gold. anybody know of any?

I have only seen it on multi-colored gold pocket watches.

I have seen it used on very old mens dress watches. I never cared for the look. I want to think I had read somewhere that it’s not to safe to wear green gold.

wasn't the green 'hulk' submariner marketed as having a 'green gold' dial? think they stopped marketing as such due to lack of proper hallmarks on the dial.

I think this was mostly in reference to the usage of gold flakes/powder within the dial itself (don't quote me on this)? I could definitely see them running into the issue you described since it wasn't truly a gold dial.
