·Green is the new 'in' color these days, but long term I'd probably go with the slate dial. Grey/slate never goes out of style.

·I don't understand the popularity of green. Dial colors that go with most clothes: black, gray, white, blue. Goes with very little: green.
That's my opinion anyway.

·Both are lovely. Green would be my personal choice, but it’s a win-win either way. Good luck! Update us when you’ve pulled the trigger.

·Green. I wish the green was an option for the 38mm.

·That particular shade of green is timeless. Rolex submariner green, much less so.
I'd go green.

·Tried the green one a few days ago and loved it. Patek used the exact same shade of green on their new Nautilus.

·Definitely green...it's not an outright green...just the right shade that allows it change based off of lighting! It is tastefully done...

·I got the green and haven't regretted it one bit. As others said, it's a really beautiful shade of green (almost emerald-like) and definitely changes colors in numerous lighting conditions, hence making it super versatile to dress up or dress down. Since I see you're wearing it on the dark green leather strap in the picture, I'd recommend to see if you can buy it on the bracelet and maybe ask for the strap on the side if you can't get a discount.

I talked about that with my sales guy and he said both are about the same price...so either way doesn't matter.

·I have the green one and I absolutely adore it. The hue of green is very discreet, and (as you noticed) it turns black / grey in low light condition.
I won't post pics, here below some of my short vids, which show the watch in different lighting conditions:

·I like both but prefer the green on this watch, mostly because the blue painted seconds hand on the slate version looks a little cheap to me. I didn’t like the effect much on the recent Seiko SLA043 either. It’s more of a sporty vibe though so I guess it depends what you’re after.

Do you tend to like it better on leather or the bracelet?

·I quite like the grey, olive is just not a colour choice I would make very often.

·I went through the same decision making process: blue vs. green dial.
Here was a couple pieces which swayed me against the blue dial you're referring to: i) I find the second hand very distracting (my eye always focuses on that rather than telling the time) and ii) to me, the blue dial looks way larger than the green dial optically in the metal (I've tried it on multiple times).
I purchased the green dial about 2 months ago and have been really enjoying it - full review to come within the next week so look out for that!
The green dial is definitely on the darker side. I'd say it's a mix of 75% olive green and 25% forest green to my eye. That said, it has these moments of slight emerald green in the right sunlight. If you're like me and work in an office environment, it almost always looks super dark olive green (almost grey/black in some cases).
For those that say green doesn't go with a lot of outfits, I would tend to agree in general; however, this green dial Aqua Terra is super versatile in my opinion due to the reason it appears very dark to most, again a dark grey and almost black at times.
Green is also my favourite colour!

·I saw these ones and the blue, was hard to choose, get the blue.
Between the green and slate, seems that this one is more sporty (could look better in the beach or doing sports) and the green seems more dressy.
