Hey Steve,

This watch has a sapphire crystal and its about 42mm. Its bigger than the Rolex GMT, but the overall finish is good.

One thing that they should do is remove the luminous dot from the bezel, this would really make it a GMT II homage.

The crown is also large enough to easily grip.

I've since flipped this watch since I don't really need a GMT function. Check out TZ as some folks are selling these.

If you are going to buy a Steinhart GMT, make sure that you have the second generation of it which allows for independent GMT hand adjustment.

To me, this appears to be the best 'homage' GMT Master II I have so far seen.

Sapphire crystal?

I am saving for a GMT function watch. I have been aiming for a pre-owned Exp II, but this one has me intrigued.

Steve.
