Anyway, this date issue has kept me from purchasing this watch. Too many other GMT’s on the market than to take a chance. I’ll stick with my Rolex and GS for tracking time zones.

I actually think it's a underserved complication compared to others. I am referring to a travelers GMT with a rotating bezel. I have been thinking of buying a Tudor despite the date issue, because it seems like I don't have a lot of options. Obviously an office GMT changes everything, but for me, it's not the same class or complication, I need a jumping hour.

1. Rolex- much more expensive and can be difficult to acquire at retail.
2. GS- Not a lot of rotating bezel options that are less than 44mm (although
I have my eye on a few)
3. Omega- The PO is hockey puck thick
4. Seiko- Sharp edge Presage- I owned one, but sold it. Great value, but I couldn't get over the cheapness of the bracelet.
5. Mido or Certina- No idea, I've never seen one

So again, IMHO, I don't see a lot of competition which I think is why this watch has sold so well.
