Fun coincidence! The repair store you listed there is the same store my friend went to a few days ago replace the crystal on his 70s Seiko Bellmatic. 200 pesos lang!

commented on Jump hour function and the loss of a quick set date ·

Evan of YoureTerrific has been preaching about this for a while now. "True" GMT movements are unnecessary if your lifestyle does not involve frequently travelling to areas in different time zones.

This is why the "Caller" GMT is in my opinion, a much more practical option for someone who does not necessarily travel, but has to communicate with people in different time zones.

TLDR:

"True GMT" - for travellers who keep moving (pilots, businessmen, people terminally on vacation)

"Caller GMT" - for keeping track of people from other time zones that you need to call (conference calls with foreign clients, relatives in another country)

Head to Head: Tudor BB Chrono vs Breitling Navitimer

Given the volatility of the 2nd hand watch market, these two watches are actually hovering around the same price now. Both have the same B01 movement, yet both give very different feels and looks. Whi...
