Just in bud. I'm over the moon. Definitely 42mm case, but I can easily overlook that - clean dial/markers, MUCH better number spacing on the insert, and honestly, the best part to me is the raised or applied "GMT" that has an iridescent effect just like the gen, which the BP doesn't have. When I tried on the gen in the AD the iridescent "GMT" was the first thing that popped out to me. Sweep isn't as smooth, but glad to be rid of the BP movement dumpster fire just the same. I love it!

Aside from what I described above, it's a newer maker (don't know the fac), but it's Omega's PO GMT GoodPlanet. The gen is 43.5mm, and this one is 42. Up to this point, the only decent option was from BP… case size was accurate, but their 2836 was notoriously shoddy, and the insert number spacing was way off. This one has a miyota, and I mentioned the sweep isn't as smooth, but it's a small concession over the crapshoot of the BP. All things considered, this is now the best option for the GoodPlanet IMO. Until I get the gen, that is.
Ask Thrasher how insanely gorgeous the gen is.
***And apparently Ryan has V6F as the maker.

It looks fantastic, I didn't imagine there would be enough demand for another factory to make one... Looks Excellent!

Is that the brown dial? I've got the black dial and love it as well.
