Actually my third watch of the day as I was WFH and bored. Started with a Speedmaster pro, then a Seiko that needed winding, finally my Triple Date

I'm surprised this model isn't more popular, it's very nice. Is the 24 hour hand independently adjustable or always linked to hour hand? If independent I might look for one of these and use that hand for GMT.

The 24 hour hand is just a morning/afternoon indicator and is fixed to the hour hand. I thought it a bit pointless at first but it does help when setting the time since setting the date is a little fiddly so you want to know whether the watch is at 6am or 6pm.

I only bought this as an investment watch. I had just bought a moonwatch and figured I would wear that but in-person the triple-date is very nice and I tend to pick it up just as often. The dial looks a bit fussy in pictures but much less so in reality, I find.

An older Omega this time. This is a birth-year watch according to the seller, although given the downright lies she told in her advert that resulted in a costly trip to the repair shop I am not too reliant on her dating.
