Glad you are safe and relieved to see this upload. Praying for everyone in Japan.

I am surprised you don't hear more about the Gavox Longitude. Great watch with integrated bracelet, textured dial, and traveler GMT functionality using the Miyota 9075 movement. Looking forward to your review.

[RelativeTime]

That Gavox is really cool looking. Heard great things about Maen too.

That Gavox Avidiver 2 is intriguing. Punches well above its weight in terms of functionality from a minimally designed complication and low cost movement.

I like the Gavox a lot!!! Thanks for the introduction to the brand!

[AdAce]

Cool list, especially that Gavox!!! I have to add the Q Timex GMT (quartz option), the Steinhart Ocean 39 GMT in titanium (sports option), the Nodus Sector GMT (dress option), and the San Martin SN0112G (GADA/every day, especially if you get the one with the rotating timing bezel).

Hi Dave, thanks for featuring the Torgoen- it’s a brand I’ve been curious about for some time now. They looked solid, but were almost too good to be true for the price. I appreciate the “sanity check” on them. *lol*

I preordered the Gavox Longitude before it was released. I’m a huge fan of this true GMT. Looking forward to your video of this watch.

Great list. The Gavox looks stunning. I would have included the Traska Venturer, a beautiful timepiece from a microbrand.
Hope you're doing well in Japan. Praying for everyone in your country

Great group of GMTs! I’ve been wanting to check out something from Torgoen for some time…clean designs. The Gavox looks incredible, and I know first hand they build great watches. Vario looks like a great casual/dress/art deco version…love it!

Wow that Gavox really got my attention Definitely my favorite on your amazing list Thanks for sharing as always my friend Safe travels and Happy New Year 👍

[AndrewFlyGuy]

Cool to see a Torgoen get some love! You nailed it with your synopsis - very generously priced watch for its features and specs. Sapphire, swiss movement, GMT, 100m WR, great quality. I paid $153 shipped direct from Torgoen and have been wearing frequently in the cockpit for almost a year :)

Dear Dave,
I wanted to extend a heartfelt thank you for your recent review. It's always a pleasure to hear when someone appreciates my creations, and your positive feedback means a great deal to me.

As we step into the new year, I also want to wish you and the entire community a very Happy New Year 2024. Your support and engagement are what drive my passion and creativity, and I look forward to sharing more with you all in the coming year.

Great segment. Something I haven't seen before. Happy New Year Dave.

[randywatson]

Great video as always. The airman looks super cool.

[saf]

that glycine airman is on my watchlist now. thanks Dave!

[nextonthewrist]

That Gavox is really interesting, definitely peaks my curiosity. GMT is also my favourite complication for exactly the same reason - despite living across the pond I always set the second timezone to UK and it makes me feel that little bit more connected to home, let's hope the GMT releases keep on coming. Cheers for the nice video.

[kiwicory]

Thanks for all you do. I hope you and your loved ones as well as your community are safe! God Bless!

[MaartenAnna]

That was great!
Love that Maen; but that Glycene was insanely cool!

Do you know of any mechanical GMT watches that work with Kathmandu/Nepal time? (GMT +5:45)
