    Your favorite World Time Watch?

    As I love to look at all your favorite chronographs, I would really love to look at World Timers that you like.

    So what is your favorite World Time watch? (24 hour hand watch; GMT).

    As I only have one at the moment this is my favorite - Orient World Time



    Regards

    A.C.

    Hope that there is no such post as my search skills aren't great

    Howdy folks, glad to be here.
    I love WorldTimers, really do. I put together the following two-dozen examples of all makes and would love to hear your favorites...

    I myself own a Frederique Constant WT, rose gold (plate), map version, and love it for many many reasons.

    That's my beauty (diff color). The face reflects back various colors around it (looks blue under blue sky, red under red sky, etc.), and the reflection inside the bezel, where city names appear in mirror image, is beautiful (is there a name for this feature?).

    As for the photo, it appears in the thread as a photo, and I need to figure out how to upload my images in the same manner.

    how about this one:

    I was lucky enough to view this one in Hong Kong this year - I believe they are rather rare - notice it is a 24hr clock face - not 12hr -



    But as I actually own this one - this is my favourite

    A friend bought one and it has the nicest mechanism of any watch I have ever used. Just a lovely piece of engineering, JLC at their best.

    I own a christopher ward c60 gmt which is an excellent watch for the money, but I think the new world timer is a hell of a clever watch, nice to see from a British make and quite a looker if a little busy

    I'm a sucker for anything that has that little map of the world, like the above posted Vacheron and Frederique Constant.

    More like it:

    But that may all change tomorrow.
