Hi, like to share some first impressions with the maen hudson gmt. I got it day before yesterday. It is the version with the metal bezel.
First look: Very harmonious balanced between dial size, bezel and case though the dial is really small. I like the shiny high polished ring between bezel and rehaut.
The dial is quiet busy with large indices and little negative space. Its a tool watch, so this is ok.
Indices raised a little. I was in doubt, that the indices look cheap because they are not applied. That is not the case. They look great. The raised black borders even reflect some light so they look like applied.
Everything perfectly aligned. The bezel with the rehaut with the indices. The 24 hour hand hits the hour spot on the minute. The Maen M on the crown is straight up whenever screwed down.
Bracelet beautiful and solid. Clasp would be great with toolless adjustment. Bezel very stiff.
Mine is running 7 sec/day fast. Just within the specs. May get better with time.
Great customer response from maen during preorder time.
By and large, I think I got much more then I paid for.
Great compact gmt watch.
