ejay would be best placed I reckon.
I have always disliked the snowflake hands on Tudors, however, on the GMT it all comes together. Maybe it's having three of them, rather than two. Whatever it is, it just works. Unfortunately it's just such a chunky beast.

Yeah - the Tudor GMT is definitely one to be tried on if not already. A colleague has one and it's just hench. Compared to something like a wonderful 16750 there's just no comparison IMO.

An opinion I like to express ad nauseum is that the snowflake hands only work with rectangular block markers (as on the Pelagos). They were never meant to be used with round / dot markers. This is why they look so out of place on the Black Bay models.

I'd rather just buy the GMT that I'd like, unchanged.
I bought my Railmaster because I really liked the story behind it, and was pleasantly surprised when my 1948 had the same movement - but I'm now starting to wonder if that suggests I should part-ex the Railmaster for a GMT. Question is what I could expect to realise for the Railmaster, which of course is full box/papers, metal bracelet and model-specific tweed band.
Any ideas, watch hive-mind?
