This is what I went with on my last trip. Monta Noble, Hamilton Khaki Field Auto, Nodus Duality
Two watches I take on trips:
An old Oris mechanical Alarm watch. Alarm is a pretty useful complication, esp. when travelling.
A Seiko SBTM319, solar, radio-controlled time with quartz backup and a jumping hour. Makes it really easy to move back and forth between timezones and you never have to set it and it's always exactly on time when in a radio-signal region
I'd like to add a GMT too one day.
Think you got it covered!

That Oris is sweet !
Really depends on the purpose of the trip, number of days, and the expected activities. If it's purely for work, with no real leisure involved, and it's just overnight, I bring one watch. If the engagement is 2-4 days, I bring two watches. These are my go-to's...
I also make sure I bring an extra strap or bracelet, and ensure both are quick release.

Great selection!
Typically for work trips a single GADA or dress watch (ex. Aqua Terra, BB35, Stowa Marine, Rolex DJ) as I don't want to keep up with more than one watch - for family or social function trips prob a dive watch (Seiko Willard, Omega SMP) and a dress or GADA watch.

I had no idea Seiko made radio controlled watches that's awesome. I thought that was a Casio thing hahaha. Both that Seiko and that Oris are seriously gorgeous, love the functionality of both. Such a great use of the built in features.

It’s a microbrand based out of St. Louis. Here’s my initial review of the watch with more pictures. It’s a good one.

Wow that lume is beautiful on that dial. Is that an in-house movement from Monta?

Uses M-22 assembled in Switzerland, but it’s really a Sellita SW300
