The 5960/1A has landed.

This watch is much better in person than in pictures, I love it. Honestly I think it's more pronounced than my 718 GMT. Not sure how much wrist time it will get as I have already put it in a Casebudi in preparation for the bank safe but this one is a keeper! I'll have to slum it with my IWC Laureus chrono :D

Thanks to all.

I tried to show shots of what it is actually like on your arm/wrist.

Just to keep it from getting stolen if my house is burglarized. I only keep one piece at a time out of the bank.

Congrats, it's nice but I wouldn't overly neglect your GMT because of it.

I have 3 GMTs so one is always getting neglected. Maybe this bank shuffle I'll pull out the 16710 Coke.
