GMT Watches

How the GMT Rose works

The GMT Rose uses the Seiko NH34 automatic, a caller GMT (also called an office GMT). The fourth hand goes round the dial once every 24 hours and can be set on its own, while the local hour hand moves with the minutes as normal.

Read your second time zone where the GMT hand points on the 24-hour bezel. Turn the bezel and you can read a third time zone too.

Caller GMT or flyer GMT: which suits you?

On a caller GMT you jump the GMT hand. That suits people who stay at home and keep track of family, colleagues or markets abroad.

On a flyer (traveller) GMT you jump the local hour hand instead, which is quicker when you change time zones often. Flyer GMT movements usually cost far more. If you travel occasionally, a caller GMT does the job well: you just set the GMT hand to home time and reset the main hands when you land.

Bezel colourways

The GMT Rose comes in two-colour 24-hour bezels including Batman (blue and black) and Pepsi (red and blue), plus Root Beer and Sprite. The bezel colour splits day and night hours, so you can tell at a glance whether it is daytime in the other zone. Choose the colourway on the product page.
