My excuse? 15year old #SARB017 is losing a (nearing)minute daily and rotating bezel’s gritty from min 30 to min 45.
Solar+GMT Sumo’s surprisingly light(coming from SARB017 and Garmin Instinct). Doesn’t feel too tall nor overhang on my 7.25in/18.4cm wrist.
On Single pass RSM Field Grey Herringbone Twill strap until I get bracelet link removal tool. Love this strap as I can position all the hardware away from bottom and underside of wrist, makes sysadmin’ng a breeze.
Seems that I got lucky with alignment draw? Seconds hand appears to be mostly hitting all indexes on the rehaut, missed a by bit from min 45 to min 60.
Overall, Chuffed to bits.
For flyer/traveller/true GMT’s, I think a solar quartz movement makes a whole lotta sense. As setting time and date on flyer GMT’s a pain, given that you’d need to go through all-of-them-hours to set date. At least on caller/office GMT’s, one can set date separately.
Of course, if you only have that single watch, above won’t be an issue, but who does that subscribed to [email protected] :).
HAQ? I might have been tempted by the Citizen
