This was a total impulse buy, while cruising Chinatown. The dealer I frequent turned me onto this one.
The appeal of this one was really the black IP and strap with deployant clasp as well as the green seconds hand and the matching stich.
The GMT function is really a second seconds indicator and moves along with the main seconds hand. While annoying, I love this watch and how it presents itself on the wrist.
As far as looks go, at first glance it's a dead ringer for the gen.
Not sure if I'm going to keep this one for long, but for now it's staying in my "rotation" box.
ON to the pics...

Thanks for the feedback. I saw one in Macy's the other day and have to say it's accurate in size and design. The movement is definitely not, though. The GMT function on the gen is at the window @ the 6, where on this one it's a dual seconds counter. I still love the look and feel.
