I really dig the new GMT. It’s subtle and classy.

But I also love watches like the Bluesy.

They’re both good for different moods.

Agreed. people underestimate in my view the differnece between sub and gmt bezel. The amount of numbers and font size make a huge difference.

Yup, people used to spend a lot of time and effort ‘ghosting’ their Sub bezel inserts.

I thought I did sarcasm but apparently I'm wrong there too.

they missed a trick and could have done "yellow" numbers and have a yellow GMT hand with that black and grey combo and you would have had the Original Batman :)
