I love the Ming design language. The way they do the indices, the dial pattern/textures, and those lugs! And I like how they added the GMT function! How are you liking it?

Lovin it so far. The dial has a great amount of depth because of how many layers there are. The outer ring appears black most of the time so it's a bit more understated but it's a nice surprise when the cyan pops in direct light

The gmt hand adds a lot of lightplay, and when the sapphire on the dial completely reflects the light there's a really trippy effect where the colors disappears and you only see the gmt markings, the gmt hand and the reflection of the indices above

The strap is good but I think I'll swap it out for something a bit darker. The fact that the tail of the strap doesn't stick out is great though, I'll try to reuse the buckle

The polished concave bezel is a really great design element because it's harder to scratch than a convex one, but a lot of the time it looks like one

The finishing is pretty simple on most of the watch (brushed flanks polished top, I wouldn't have guessed it's titanium if I did not know), but there are some nice touches such as the bezel or the two finishes on the crown (which I love although it's a bit hard to grip)

The lume is how I expected it to be: mediocre. The indices are okay but the hands glow noticeably weaker
