Olive Green Bezel Inserts

I like the look of the Blackbay Harrods edition but it's out of my price range. I was wondering if anyone had anyy suggestions for a sub 1000 diver with an olive green Bezel insert and a black dial. Seiko king turtle did the opposite so I am looking for other options.

Ooof that’s a tall ask. The closest I can think of is the Citizen Promaster NY0071-81E. It’s not olive green, but at least you have the green bezel, black dial, and sub 1000 dive watch.

Else, most other watches in olive green tend to match the bezel and dial colours, or invert the colours like the Seiko turtle.

Mod your own Seiko, they make a plethora of models with green dials and black bezels or black on black, swap the metal bezel inserts and have a piece unique.

There is also olive green on olive green which I like.

You could always buy 2 Steeldive SD1970 "Willards" (one green and one black) and swap the insides over.

I love how absurb and yet accurate this suggestion is! Would love to have the money to do this 😂

Here is my pick at $3150

Love this H edition !! 🥰

Not exactly olive green, but a little more lively. The new Certina GMT.

yes. I would definately scoop this up if I had the cheese. Love Longines as a brand.

great find! thank you.

·

blackbay got too much varnish seems artifice too me if i am wrong i am wrong no offence ultimately it is all subjective

·

I think you may have a winner here. The only thing that gives me pause is the 40mm size as divers where a touch small.

You should be able to get a pre-owened Harrods BB for less than retail.

I suspect you are correct but it will still be way beyond my current means. Ultimately I would love to pick one up but not in the near future or until the lottery picks my numbers 😉. I actually modded a Vostok with a green Bezel and that was pretty dope but flipped it awhile ago.

This appeared on an unrelated google search I did earlier. Slightly over budget but quite similar! https://www.goldsmiths.co.uk/Longines-HydroConquest-41mm-Mens-Watch-+-Watches-of-Switzerland-Exclusive-+-Free-Additional-Strap-L37814059/p/17351085?store=273&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwwYSwBhDcARIsAOyL0fhhoW9ss8d5NLOqAml2B01ZexMjqKo0cDcPGc1K02tWdERPSdRLStgaAiKCEALw_wcB

This is the way to get that Harrod’s BB look for sure and was going to be my recommendation as well.

I picked this up for exactly 1000 British pounds brand new from Jura.
