Cool!

In the first couple of pictures the sunset makes it look like your GMT has gilt hands!

Hope it was a fruitful trip.

If things were slow, you could have put the GMT on the hook, the PCLs would attract plenty of fish! Perfect fishing watch!

But you can use the bezel to determine north and thus navigate that boat...

Nice. If you had caught a fish you can log it in 2 timezones.
