Congrats!

Try setting the 3rd hand to track 24 hour time instead of a 3rd time zone. I’ve found that the GMT calibre with a fixed bezel is nice for doing this, and since you already have a GMT Master 2, it’s a nice way to change things up.

You can still use the jumping hour hand when you travel to quickly change the time to local time

Waiting to see it ….


It looks big in the pics but it fits my physique very well.

I think you need at least 3 to have a collection. congrats on the new one. I call my two a duo. When I get my Explorer, I’ll have a collection.

Love the collection! May it give you enormous pleasure for years to come!

Don’t let any party pooper pop your collection balloon! Yes, two is a (great) collection.

That's a superb watch but then I would say that. Congratulations.

You have photographic evidence to prove your AD didn't sell it out the back door. That's a nice bonus.

I think it's a bit of an oxymoron, but I've frequently heard people talk about their 1-watch collection, so who's to judge...

Kat for the win on this one. A collection is a group of things (a pair can be a group). A one watch collection is wishful thinking.
