At present, a sample of the black Dial version has been made, and the light blue dial will come out later.And the version of the world time bezel is a little later, because some adjustments have been made according to the feedback of the comments.

Is this an original design?
Ok, I’m totally down for this. It’s not a Rolex or Tudor homage, date at the 6 position, and GMT. This is the first San Martin I’m really looking forward to. Thanks.
What’s the movement inside? Caller or traveler’s GMT?
The 6-o'clock date looks really good! And it is still excellent to see San Martin active with original designs on community forums!
If I could make one suggestion, I would change the second indicator typeface from Times New Roman to a grotesque sans serif.
Because Times New Roman is universally available in word processing software, Westerners tend to view it as an unsophisticated "default" option. There are many free grotesque typefaces which will look more traditional. (As with many "traditions", both options are equally functional. But even Western companies are strongly pressured to use the specific design choices that were popular in Switzerland in the 20th century.)

It can be said that it is an original design, and most of the matching effects of the elements in it are our own ideas, and we did not refer to the big names

The NH34 movement is used, and the 4-hand GMT movement structure

very good suggestion
Love it! Maybe make the GMT hand not fully painted as it makes it look a bit weird around the hand stack. I would suggest only painting the tip or starting from the shaft of the hand and leaving out the central bit like Rolex does on their GMT. Looks much better imo.
