+1 and I have one also (now on brown padded leather and feels like 3 times more expensive). How ever the 24 h hand is not independent but the bezel is easy to use for the 2nd time zone.

Then there is also this (borrowing my old post from here):

When I found out that there is a real GMT -movement from Orient it came "must to get". Then I found out that by about 300 UK Pounds I can get it from orientuhren.de (no other connections to them) I just ordered it.


(picture stolen, sorry)

To make it short; It works in good and bad just like ETA 2893-2. You can addjust the 24 hour hand what ever full hour time you like. Power reserve is bonus compared to 2893.

Under the loop dial is about perfect so is the case and the bracelet is full steel including end pieces. Even nice butterfly clasp what normally I don´t like. (Usually those don´t feel good to my wrist).

I think that quality -price -level is incredible compared to swiss competitors.

I am not seriously saying that this is really competitor but.....


(picture stolen, sorry, but they did it first)

... but by about 10 % from that price.....

(Yes I know. Omega movement is much more nicer and user friendly but maybe 10 time more money needed)

My first GMT arrived while I was in the sandpit, absolutely exquisite.

How many have you got?

I have one (below), plus a secret one on its way to me (it is so secret that I cannot tell you which one it is).



PS: GMT's? GMTs!

Oh very nice indeed. I've been looking at the Airman SST models recently and love their design, but unfortunately above my budget.

Well done. About time someone said it.

Beautiful.
Welcome to the forum.

It's already been said. Mea culpa, although I'm usually quite reliable with such things.

So it has. I missed the earlier comment - too busy perving over the pics.

Maybe I should eat more carrot's to improve my eyesight.

I've had a few, but never yet found one that would be a real keeper. Living in Australia, with family overseas in four different time zones, it is a useful complication, but for me, when travelling to see some of them, it has to be a travel rather than an office type. Next stop, when I can either raise the funds, or work out which of my collection to sell, will be a GMT II - preferably lug-holes and SEL K or Y-series.

These have come and gone so far.






And there's also a Casio GW-2500 which is by far the most sophisticated - so sophisticated that I need the instruction manual to reset it. And use it mostly as a travel alarm clock...
