  • Thanks, I read this article last night:

    https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/tudor-black-bay-gmt-review

    and the reason I got confused was that they ignore the GMT hand always showing GMT.

    I guess to most people, always showing GMT is irrelevant. It just so happens that GMT is also our home timezone, so when people discuss how to use a GMT, always showing GMT becomes the "3rd option" whereas to us in the UK, rotating the bezel to show an optional 3rd timezone is the "3rd option".

  • I think most people do use GMT as their home time. For e.g. I wouldn't militantly use GMT, I'd just keep it to current UK time.

    @Dammit - you should get one. Or a Master II.... although they do now seem expensive for what they are. I'm sure I remember them being £3-4k second hand. Any particular reason for preferring the original one?

    Got to grudgingly admit it, but like a no-date sub, OP, or day-date, Rolex do nail it. When taken in the round I can't think of another GMT that actually executes it better. My choice would be 16710, black bezel.
