Whats the movement in the GST?

I like the skeleton!

It's an Asian 7750. I think it's only available in that movement from any dealers.

I also got this in a bad font. Other than these, I couldn't find any pannies that I like, nor Rolex sub, GMT II, or Explorer II. I did a really nice Planet Ocean orange w/ SS bracelet for $700. But I'm not a Omega fan.

all under 150 USD. The GST is the most expensive. This explains the low price that WO-MART has.

HK, GZ, SZ, a perfect vacation trio. For me, golf, reps, watch servicing, sauna, various authentic Chinese/Asian foods, night clubs, women. Paradise doesn't get better. Maybe I should be the organizer. Men-only though.

@bklm1234: Where did you get the Explorer I parts? Do they offer other parts? Eg. Subs?

Great haul!

Is it just me or is the EXP I one of the best reps available? Hardly any press....

It is high on my list!

You just have to ask around. Explorer I is so easy to get a hold of. But something like a Omega Planet Ocean for example is probably not.
