Today I received an Omega GMT, such as the Asian one that By-tor has already reviewed, courtesy of Natron. A big thank you to Natron, as the service I recevied was flawless!

The dial is fantastic. The wave pattern really is good, especially in the sunlight! Date window has the correct white outline, and the date font is good also.

The crown is much better than the one available on the new 'ultimate GMT' that is available. It also sits nice and deep into the crown guards as per the gen.

It is of a similar size to the SMP Chrono, but not as bulky (depth is less due to the movement). This is a watch that would be great for everyday use, a real good daily beater, which is what I intend it to be.

The strap is very comfortable, and the watch itself is light. I would say it is almost as comfortable as my Aerospace, and that's the most comfortable watch I have ever worn.

The clasp closes securely, and leaves me in no fear of it coming undone whilst wearing it.

The bezel insert and the numbers are very sharp no blurry print, or uneven edges. The rotation of the bezel is also nice and firm.

I am glad I have finally obtained the Omega GMT, it is the best watch for the momeny without a doubt. If you haven't got one, go and buy one........NOW :D

The lettering is not very deep like the Seamaster pictured with it. Very shallow.

Dial isn't too good, the hands are very good for a rep. I haven't seen how long it lasts, but the hands glow pretty strongly after being in a direct light.

looks good to me! the nice thing about the gmt is that it is not as common as the bond seamasters.
