From the title I thought he'd be wearing the left wrist version of the GMT. Nice pic either way.

Great. I'm sure you and your dad will enjoy every minute.

Go Birds!

I see you're in Miami. Was there not long ago, my two oldest children live there since 1990.

I'm doing this with mine and it's phenomenal! No crown dig. Watch doesn't pull down towards my hand and stays more balanced. Just feels great and I love the way it looks.

These are reasons why Destro watches exist, beyond right hand wear.

I just wish they would have the cyclops on the right side of the watch. Then it makes complete sense to me as a watch that was created to be worn on either arm. At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter what other people think anyways, it only matters to the owner!

I get that wish and wondered initially the same. But. Once I put it on I wouldn’t even dream of changing anything about this watch.

Having the date, with that signature cyclops, crown side makes it even cooler, for me. That placement maintains the traditional look while also allowing it a new uniqueness. That’s special!

I agree with you completely, the owner’s pleasure is the only one that matters!

I got the opportunity to try one on at my AD (exhibition only) yesterday. It was with an oyster bracelet. Not going to lie, it is pretty cool. I am a sucker for green and black with my LV, and it is just different. I get the draw and not to mention a really cool conversation starter.

Cool watch. Spring training is around the corner.

My Yankee home opener tickets are on the way.

Go Yankees!

So that's where the VTNR I hoped my AD would sell me went. Mystery solved! Oh, and I'm a lefty, too...
