This watch is a perfect combination of true GMT functionality, no battery replacement Eco-Drive practicality, esthetics, and price. Very pleased.
Great, easy to read watch even in the dark. Simple, classic design that will last a long time. The watch band that comes with it fits and has many holes to adjust it to the perfect fit, however for those of us that have small wrists, the length as one other reviewer said is too long. There is not quite enough of the length to tuck back under the keeper so you either have to cut it off or find another band to fit. I did the later and put it on a navy blue band which looks better than the gray. It makes the watch face pop and makes it look much more striking. Despite the stock band, the watch is great and very happy with it!
Really liked the dial color and texture, markers are clean and legible while allowing the hands to exist with the yellow GMT hand comfortably. Screw down crown operates smoothly and the bezel shares the space well. Watch wears a bit smaller than the size indicates. The strap is LONG! I trimmed it down as the overhang on my 6.5" wrist was significant.
So I really was looking forward to this line being released. I ordered 2 of the new, and trying to get the 3rd I want, not released in US yet. I tend to prefer either GMT watches, or clean gada watches. I like solar and radio controlled also... so this ticked a few boxes. Extremely visible numbers, easy to read any time! Im very happy with the purchase and would recommend. Strap is a bit stiff for my liking, but easily changeable. Now a regular rotation watch!
The GMT arrived in a timely manner. The case is a cool waterproof case. The watch was very easy to set up without any instructions. I've had the watch for a week and really like it.
This is a pretty cool watch. It's very easy to read and the lume is fantastic. It's a bit tricky to set it and I don't see easy instructions on the webpage but I'm starting to get the hang of it. I'm not a constant world traveler so it's mostly "set and forget" for me, but if I traveled a lot I'd probably figure out how to easily set it. It's set up so that you set the main dial for the "new" time zone you're in and leave the GMT hand at your "home" time zone. But I rarely travel so I have it set the opposite, which makes it a tad bit trickier to set. My only grip is the price (although you do get a great watch that is very durable and cool-looking) and mostly the bland watch strap it comes with. But I love the curved sapphire crystal (I'm really hard on watches and scratch mineral crystals almost immediately) and the really legible dial, so I would buy it again. I just bought a bunch of aftermarket straps that I can easily swap out to suit my mood. I would definitely buy this watch again.
I bought this as a gift for a family member, and I own several GMT watches myself. I generally love the eco-drive platform, especially as it's evolved to charge with any light (not just sunlight). The dial is easily readable and the blue color is cool and distinctive. The nato strap is comfortable and appears to be durable/high quality. My only complaint and the reason for knocking off one star is that the GMT mechanism does not allow for moving the hour hand backwards, only forward. So if you are traveling from a later to an earlier time zone, you have no choice but to go through a full rotation of the hour hand, which means you then are off on the date by one day, requiring going through the whole month to set it correctly. Is it a huge deal for a relatively inexpensive watch? Hardly, but it seems like something that could easily be and should have been addressed in the design and function of the movement at any price point.
I have been a career navigator and a precise watch is key to accurate celestial positioning. It is a pain having to use two watches, one in local time and another set to GMT. The eco-drive is supremely accurate; 5 seconds a month and a short exposure to sunlight will run it for months. The face is bright in low light conditions like aircraft or ship cabins. When transiting several time zones rapidly, GMT is your main reference and this watch fits the bill perfectly. If you don't like the band substitute a third party metal band. Just wear it and forget it. It's just that easy.
Is a Beautiful watch nice presentation perfect for sport used
Great looking everyday watch. The dial is very cool with a unique texture. The strap will fit anyone. Impressive watch for the price.
