Breitling Colt GMT.
I'm not sure what discounts are around on Omega, but the Seamaster 300m GMT shouldn't be too far out of the price range. |

Longines Admiral GMT, very nice and well built watch.
Also consider Tudor Aeronaut, although not so similar as it`s bigger brother GMT Master, still very interesting timepiece. And, already mentioned, Breitling Colt GMT, simply awesome watch, especially older model.

I have to second the Breitling Colt GMT.
My first choice would be to save a little more money and get a nice previously loved Rolex EXP II but if not then as I said the Breitling is your next best choice.

Like the "Great White" Omega GMT and the Breitling Colt. If you don't mind going a little smaller, some of the pre-owned 38mm (I think) Ulysse Nardin models are hovering around $2K on the sales boards. I have the newer, larger version but it's a great system with a separate set of push-buttons to advance or reverse the hour hand and a permanent hour register showing home time.

Around 2k is a tricky price-range. Never buy new in this area. I'd recommend a used Ullyse Nardin GMT.

Cyma. CSOC certified. Navy Star GMT. Great value for a CSOC watch.

Agree on the Omega suggestions. Also if u like a big manly watch, how about the Doxa Sub 750 gmt?
