      Here's another GMT, the Grand Seiko 9F Quartz GMT. This version, with the yellow highlight, has a specially tweaked movement accurate to within five seconds per year. :o

        dead sexy–but among my very favorites of all GMTs is this one: http://watchesbysjx.com/2017/10/introducing-the-grand-seiko-hi-beat-gmt-peacock-sbgj227.html

        Think it, be it.

          @mclaincausey the green peacock dial is lovely. 😘

          I like the Grand Seiko Blue Ceramic GMT, although it's probably an acquired taste. 🙂

          It's also a big (46 mm in diameter) and expensive ($15K) watch.

          Hodinkee and Watch Time have writeups.

            I like it too - a lot. However, the price is ridiculous.

                As a side note, I went to see "Crazy Rich Asians" recently (fun). There are a few nice watches, most especially a panda Daytona…

                      It was a pretty fun movie. I'm told the author name drops exceedingly nice watches throughout all three books in the series.  It will be interesting to see if any others get screen time in the future movie(s).

                        I recall at least one big Hublot at someone's wrist… I agree, fun movie.

                          So I went to the Vintage Rolex Forum x Fourtané meet last weekend in Carmel-by-the-Sea (see below for the link) and it was wonderful. I met a lot of wonderful people there, Eric Ku included, and saw the below Oysterquartz. I knew my father would love it so I let him know about it and now he's the proud owner of this 1980 Datejust Oysterquartz! It's his first vintage piece and he couldn't be happier. I love that I was able to convince him to get it and offload his regular Datejust  😎

                            About 10 years ago I had a dealer offer me an Oysterquartz for $700 and I sadly passed on it because we were buying a house. [emoji24]

                                I’d love to have one in veg tan but unfortunately leather and hospitals dont mix well. I’d love even more to have a sterling bracelet but keeping my wife from tearing off my genitals is my first priority.

                                  Wimp! Who needs testicles when you have a sterling silver Rolex strap  😃

                                      Looking to trade my Panerai for a Rolex. Can anyone recommend a dealer or person they’ve dealt with?

                                      Maybe so. Maybe not
