Formula for sheer CLASS!! Add a dash of 18K gold to some 904L steel!!

There ya go, guys............simple formula that spells pure, unadulterated CLASS all the way - a fine mix of 18K gold and solid 904L steel........to give you this beauty!!

I think for the same price as that TT GMT - you could buy a pre-owned Patek in White Gold. That would be way more class IMHO.

Oooh, JJ...that's beautiful. BTW, I know that's a rather new aqusition...how's the accuracy? My M SUB - my first BNIB - gains a +2 a day, and loses it (crown up) at night. These newer movements are wicked good.

Wear it in good health,
Mark

I agree - that's GMTIIc is a fantastic looking watch. That's about as much gold on a watch that I could feel comfortable wearing without being self-conscious.
