Also a JLC Reverso duel time travel is a nice take on the GMT theme
I have considered some Seikos, but they are too big at 45mm and 15/16mm thick. The new Seiko SBGM247 would be ok if they did it in black, but they only offer olive and blue (I hate blue watches). The GS are also too big and too shiny; I am a bit of a tool watch guy -- too much bling isn't my thing.

The Reversos DT are nice as a dress watch, but much of my life is spent wrenching on Land Rovers or putting up cedar roofs on heritage properties -- I need something pretty robust.
