Agreed: Got it Right the First Time
In Response To: agreed ()


OK, I will agree that this GMT is a killer . . . they got it right with the 24 numbers, thinner case, and the Viceroy style hands. So I will keep mine.

Perhaps my real point should have been that the second version, with the same thin case and even-numbers-only had the "improvement" of the distinctive GMT hands and the red accents on the dial. It's probably personal taste / personal preference regarding which of the first two is the "pick of the litter" . . . I am happy to have the first one; I often wish that I had also kept the second one.

And here are two more of the "Favorite Firsts" . . .

: sorry Jeff, as a fellow GMT addict (and I think David is
: "recovering"),
: I have to agree with David, my favourite automatic gmt is the first
: edition. I'll post a pic of mine when I get a chance.
: For all time favourite gmt this has to tie with the classic 2446C
: snap back case gmt.
