Help me find a small green watch
Discussion
Seiko SARB017 if you can find one.
They all seem rather pricey these days.

Sorry to hijack the thread but I'm fancying something with a bit of green on too.. maybe motorsports inspired and on the brighter side of green (or with green accents). Kind of a well done to myself for buying my first 911 (which has green bits on it!).
I quite like the idea of a Tag Heuer but none of the current range is leaping out at me. I've got an old green Tag Formula 1 from when I was a kid but it looks tiny on me and the bezel is totally faded out.
Any other ideas on motorsport or dive watches with a bit of green on them? Probably 39mm upwards.

Things that 'spring' to mind are:
Frederic Constantin 'Healy'
Breitling TopTime
Duckworth Prestex?
Or a whole range of budget options at Omologato
Really what you need is Rolex Daytona
Or stick with Porsche > https://store.inchcape.co.uk/products/porsche-spor...

Have a bit of a soft spot for Ball watches, incredible lume on them

OP here
Love those Ball watches, but can't wear them at 41mm or 43mm if I could have that between 36mm and 38mm I would buy it right now.
This is my problem why can't watch manufacturers build a 41mm also at 38mm? If Omega built a green wave dial Seamaster at 38mm without the helium valve, 100m to 200m resistance and a 1mm thinner for me job jobbed. It is frustrating that size has become such a manly thing.

How about a PRX?
Remake of a watch they did in the '70s, very high quality for the money, and an ancient Swiss brand nonetheless.
I have the automatic, but the vfm of the quartz is off the charts imho (saying this as a Seiko fanboy)
Oh and they do a 35mm one.

If you do please could you post your views on the watch.
Many thanks
