Looks like I might be adding green to my want list if Apple doesn’t issue a good new green band next month! I have to go now and search up some more photos.
Chances of that happening? Low to zero is my guess. And that's without knowing what you consider a "good new green".
I don't hate any of them, but my take on the green efforts today:
Green: love it, but it's not the easiest to wear as it's so intense
Mint: looks like green Blutack, or chewing gum. Not terrible, but pretty "meh" unless it's picked up by clothing
Marine: I don't have it yet, but it looks too pale and possibly with a hint of blue
Spearmint: Fresh and bright, looks good, but again an odd colour to match unless clothing picks it up
Pacific: Again I don't have it yet, but looks like the "Midnight Blue" of the greens i.e. too dark
Pine: Hints of blue or grey in some lights take away from it being a good general purpose dark green
Khaki: Could have been a good mid-green, but it has just a hint too much brown that makes it slightly "sludgy"
Beryl: Very hard to tell apart from Turquoise. So pale it's barely green at all
Cactus: Alongside green it looks blue and alongside blue it looks green
I just want a nice bottle green, not super-intense and not with undertones of another colour

I forgot the Nikes, which are some of my most favourite bands of all
Cargo Khaki: probably my all-time favourite band when in a black Watch, but it's very dark and quite military looking so doesn't work with a business shirt in the office
Olive Flak: again I love it with a black Watch, but again it looks military so only useable for casual outfits
