GO just released the Sixties Iconic Square series, which includes dials in five different colors. The story behind the dial-making process on these is fascinating, and the associated techniques reflect some real artistry from GO. I'm partial to cushion cases, so when I saw the first photos of the Forest green dial, I was immediately smitten. Only three of these green dials were released in the U.S. (twenty-five worldwide), so I consider myself very lucky to have been able to add this one to the collection...

Wow that's a beautiful dial!! Did you get a chance to see any of the other dial colors in person? They all looked pretty awesome in the photos.

Purchased this one long distance, so have not had a chance to eyeball the other dials. Would love to get the chance to do so at some point!
