I have two SCG Omega watches purchased from *amzswiss* . I've compared them side by side in a jewellers and even the jeweller was stunned at how good they were. He picked out very subtle differences compared to originals, something you wouldn't be able to do just by looking at them. The cost for two originals is around £25, 000. The cost for my two SCG, just under £600.

I recently bought the Traska Venturer GMT, I had wanted a GMT for a while and for me, it absolutely ticks all the boxes, small case size, "true" GMT and so on. I know the internal bezel and accompanying second crown at 10 o'clock might not be for everyone, but I really do think it's worth a look - I'd love to see you review it!

[nathanmargolis]

I think the Bulova Wilton GMT deserves a spot on this list for sure. I own one, and it's a great true GMT movement for the money.

Ben, that was the best description of caller and traveler GMT's I have heard... and I have heard a lot of them. I enjoyed this video very much and I'm not going anywhere.

[davidc]

Just wanted to say that i love your channel and your way of presenting bro! I just started my watch collection, because I was inspired by my grandpa and you really helped me finding my first beautiful dress watch!

[benedge]

I’d also include the Jack Mason Strat-O-Timer. About £700 - £800 from the US with great finishing, quick detach bracelet, on the fly micro adjust, sapphire crystal and most importantly for the price a true/travellers GMT movement!

[samnova]

Thanks for all the GMT watch reviews.

I just purchased the Zelos THRESHER 41MM AVENTURINE for $650 US dollars. Seen allot of great reviews on it and it too has the Miyota 9075 'True' GMT movement. Looking forward to getting it, my first watch from Zelos and my first GMT.

Fun presentation. Another watch to consider would the the Traska Venturer.

[AbdalahGrosse]

As always the most thoughtful, well researched & eloquent watch channel around, keep AMZWATCH coming !

[patrickhartmann]

I’m with you on the Timex Q GMT. Looks and wears great!

[Blaze]

Just wanted to let you know, you're currently my favorite comfort video YouTuber... while I drive, I listen to your videos (don't worry, not watch, I save that for when I'm not driving). Thanks for all your great content!

[johnswatchjoint]

Excellent work Ben. A real deep dive into the murky subject of GMT's....there are just many !

[NiKoJlaY]

I think a very good option under 1k$, would be Steinhart Ocean One GMT BLUE-RED, SKU:103-1100. That's a Rolex Pepsi homage, but quality/price is amazing. Selita SW330-1 movement, pretty good quality, Swiss made .

[adk]

Wow. That’s a hell of a list. Thanks for putting it together. If I could afford it, I love the Seiko SPB411. Thanks again!

[Tyrone]

Wow great video, and great watches. The wise, san martin and maen were my favorite looking of the bunch

[finesse]

The "dress" Addiesdive appears to have been replaced by a 36mm version - exactly what I've been waiting for. I just picked one up for US $70.

[speedracerplease]

I just saw an awesome Tissot quartz rootbeer GMT Seastar for just under $400 in the duty free shop at the airport! I love all these cool options you found from brands I hadn't even heard of, though, way more of a conversation starter

[Tomsgate]

Thank you Ben! Some interesting models, though I was surprised not to hear you mention Glycine. I mean, they sort of invented the automatic GMT and you can easily get Glycine GMTs under 1000$... Nonetheless, great video, keep it up!

[creato]

Victorinox sells a Fieldforce GMT with a Ronda Quartz GMT movement and they do look good, they are around 400 dollars in the US.

[cosmodoc]

Great list Ben, thanks! I feel you should have mentioned the Lorier Hyperion true GMT for $599!
