Timepiece Trends: Green Continues To Dominate The Watch Industry

By Adrienne Faurote | April 6, 2022

Watches & Wonders made a triumphant in-person return last week in Geneva, leaving the watch industry with a lot to dissect. From Hublot introducing the Square Bang Unico and TAG Heuer releasing its most expensive timepiece yet to Grand Seiko’s monumental unveiling of the Kodo tourbillon, the novelties pushed industry boundaries and set new precedents and trends. One trend that was evident in 2021 and is here to stay is the shade of green. The colorway remains a constant in collections; and, in fact, was the hero color of Rolex’s latest GMT-Master II — which we’re anxiously awaiting to see if ‘Sprite’ sticks as the nickname. 

There’s no one shade of green either — the play of green ranges from more neutral olive and sage to vibrant kelly green and tsavorite. Ahead, discover the green timepieces dominating the trend this year.

Not only is this the first Rolex GMT featuring the new green and black colorway on the two-color bezel insert, but it also introduces the winding crown on the left side of the case and the date aperture at 9 o’clock – the only Rolex watch with this configuration.
