New member here..........Hi everyone!

Great site. I've had my GMT for ten years now. I wear it every day. I bought it in 99. Are there any GMT specific sites?

Best Regards, Chris

WATCHTIME magazine. What do I win? Welcome and you'll find lots and lots of GMT fans here. Next to the Sub, it's gotta be the most popular, if not, the most popular watch here. Thanks for sharing the cool pics.

Looks like Watchtime.

BTW, do you fly Canadair Regional Jets? Just a guess.

Welcome Chris!

Glad to see a fellow aviator. I love the black/red or "Coke" GMT as some call it. If they hadn't come out with the GMT IIC in '08 it would be in my stable....maybe someday but for now 2 is enough.

Here's a link to one of my first posts when I joined. There is a link in it to an excellent GMT history authored by Tools (who is a moderator/admin here).
http://rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=51468

Be careful....this place can be addictive!

Happy returns and safe flying,

--Paul
