Icon7 Steinhart Ocean One GMT

Hi Everyone,

Only just recently got this one.

The Steinhart Ocean One GMT.

The watch case originally had polished sides. As I prefer the brushed steel look, I have brushed the sides of the watch case and the space between the lugs as well, as this was also polished.

Because it is quite warm at the moment, I have swapped the metal bracelet for a black rally leather strap by ZRC. Also, this cuts down on the watches weight. I have also been wearing it on a black NATO strap, for the same reasons.

For the money that this watch cost, I have to say that I am very, very pleased with it.

Swiss made with an ETA 2893-2 movement. Sapphire glass and 300 metre water resistance, all for a really, really good price. The quality of the watch feels very, very nice as well. Steinhart have done a very good job here.

What else can I say? I like it. I like it a lot!

Well done, Steinhart, I say!

Till next time...

The Laird

Looks great! Steinhart make the greatest GMT Master hommage. Looks like a quality timepiece, not like an Alpha. I'm thinking of getting one, Pepsi, like yours. Congrats mate!

I own this Steinhart and a Pepsi 16700. Not really comparable of course (caliber, quality, brans and so on)... But what I like in the Steinhart is the fact it is a 42mm watch with fat indexes. Very good quality for the price ans runs very well. Enjoy and tks for the pics.

Cheers,

GMT Vintage is a good one; 42mm also. Bought one last year. Solid and runs well.
