    Re: 'Precista' GMT GTLS

    Interesting review of something which IMHO is cheap tat brought to the Market as its maker spotted a chink in a competitors armour (ie the lack of Precista trade marking in some countries) and is now trying to get buyers through assumed association.

    I can't see any redeeming features and hope the company fails and costs the owner alot of money.

    The watch is a pretty shabby business, but your review is, as usual, a very enjoyable read. Thanks for posting it.

    I am biased, I am a fan of the Precista brand. That is the decleration of interest out of the way. The review was interesting, objective ( as far as such reviews can be ) and thoughtful. Shame the watch in question is overpriced tat.

    I like the review :)

    That watch though is poop. I have no objection to the movement, and if executed well it could form the basis of a good budget GMT beater, but that is just...wrong.

    The list of things that bug me about it is long, but I just can't get over the case design that has such short lugs (and poor springbar location) that they have to cut a groove out of the case to get even a skinny strap to fit. The point of watches like this is that they are functionally great, and this one isn't.

    Sigh. Still, it makes you appreciate when you handle a well-conceived and engineered watch :)
