Sure, there is the classic Rolex GMT, but what are some other options if I want to switch it up a bit?

The GMT hand is wonderful; seems like more watches would just have this as a basic function.

Thanks, gentlemen of the OT.

My G-Shock tells time all over the world. You're welcome.

G-Shocks are the ugliest watches in the world.

Ball makes some slick GMT watches. I think most companies have a GMT model.

Nomos Tangomat GMT

They also make a world timer.

Sinn 856 UTC

They make a TESTAF version and brushed steel and many other ones as well.

IWC makes dual time watches, Panerai makes some GMTs, Patek makes dual times in their Nautilus series.

Stowa makes a GMT

My watch (subtle brag). Love that thing. Limitless strap options and easy to swap out if I want to take off the stainless.

That's a really cool watch. It's pretty much the perfect daily wearer.

I can't get over the lugs on those watches, why so fat? It throws off the dimensions for me. I guess they're trying to make the bezel pop, and sort of make it look like an integral band, but both of those are strange. I like to minimize the bezel myself, and have a large dial to case ratio, so that's just me.

Not sure, that's the 1st time someone has mentioned that.

It was the watch I fell in love with, but I ended up with a Stowa since I thought the design was a bit better, same movements. They differences are slight, but everything about this design does it for me.



Usually wear it on NATO.

Grand Seiko GMT. Would love to say I have one...but I don't. It's on my list, though. Can be had for roughly $3300.

Stowa are nice. Odd date placement.

Just love the black and white "instrument" look of the Sinn.

It tickles my pickle. Which is necessary when blowing this kind of money on a watch.

Love me some watches though.

Bell & Ross is the watch I actually got my hands on to be sure I'd like the Sinn before buying it online.

Very nice.
