Nice pics. So which movements on the GMT Master IIs are reliable? And are there any that function similarly to gen with the date function that operates in both directions? Out of the LN, BLRO, or BLNR.

The way I have come to understand it in 6 months of participating in the forum:

ICHS 2836 movements are ETA clones that are very reliable but have the incorrect hand stack. These can be found in various GMTIIs from various manufacturers.
New LNs from ARF and VRF have a Rolex cloned movement and -obviously -haveCHS, and should be reliable but these are just out so experience is limited
"Time bomb" ETA 2836 derived CHS movements are unreliable and can be found in various GMTII offerings and are not reliable, some members have no problems, others have $700 paper weights.
Low beat ICHS DG2813 and CHS DG3804 movements can be found in cheaper GMTIIs in particular from BP. The ICHS is reliable, the CHS is out recently and experience is lacking
