Looks pretty good in the pics. I’d love to see one in person though.

Personally (to me) it is one of the best looking GMTs made since the original Root Beer.

This will be an heirloom watch for anyone to keep and hand down.

I prefer the Blue dial with Pepsi.

But the Meteorite dial is the second-best.

Hulk on the tray and Batman in the case?

The meteorite is amazing.

I put the meteorite on my wrist and I did not like it as much as I thought I would.
Something just clashed a little on my eyes. Don't get me wrong, the dial is spectacular,
but all combined it did not come together for me aesthetically.
Blue 126719BLRO-0003 > Black 116719BLRO > Meteorite 126719BLRO-0002
for overall look.

Nope for me. Legibility factor no good. The lume plots kind of hide within the texture and color of the meteorite. Best GMT made right now is the full RG CHNR. By a long shot.

Right, because why produce a product everyone wants, no one can find, and retailers play hide and seek with???
