MB II in green ?

[John Price]

I'm guessing the MB II with green case is a rather rare bird. I've only seen a couple of photos posted. Do any of you have one ? Can you post photos ? Would love to see more.

Thanks!

Yeah... always thought the green might be cool, depending on the hue - dark/deep green OK, bright green not so OK. With that said I haven't seen one other than a couple of pictures. A dark brown strap with the green barrel would look good IMO, but then again I like things different sometimes, ha!

Good luck with your pic search.

I found this pic on the ATG forum in the ATG gallery. it shows the Green barrel in all its glory! I think it is a sleeper for some one who wants to be a little different! picture credit goes to ATG! Check them out and join, they are a great source of info and new friends! Cheers Jim

For me, it's gotta be orange or anthracite. Or, for the jet-chuckers among us, perhaps red. ( I'm looking at you, Jim.)

Sorry.

Here's one, on leather, from Goodwood a couple of years' ago...

I saw the green a year or so ago at an AD. It is a nice color as seen in the photos posted above. It is much more subtle than the orange and on the wrist, it is much harder to identify as green. My guess is that it is a very rare color because orange seems to be the overwhelming favorite and those wanting something less subtle would go with the anthracite. I'd be curious to see what the actual production numbers are like.

The yellow Selfridges(?) model and the blue barrel sold for charity are probably the only ones rarer than the green.

Thanks gents. I did see the ATG forum photo - that was what sparked my interest. It'll be a while before I can buy one of these beauties but that green is really calling to me (plus, my wife likes it better too - win/win!). Perhaps I can buy a green one and get a spare orange barrel.

For me ,I would choose Blue for my first choice for a second MB, if it was a color that was available ! Of the standard colors I to like the Green since Orange is so close to my Red! Cheers Jim
