    New GMT2 opinons wanted (new 92" pic added)

    So, after around a week, my Debaufre GMT2 has arrived from Switerland. I do not have an Explorer 2 for comparision, but the look feel & quality seems very good for the money imo.


    Let me know what you guys think.

    Look alikes not for me, but then again, you perhaps can get 10 of them for one new Explorer at £3690.00 new
    All depends on its quality and wearability. A vast number of watches from 100's of makers have copied the Rolex look

    Hi

    I've been looking into the Steinhart and to be honest whilst I like the fixed bezel of your watch I much prefer the dial of the Steinhart.

    Looking at the new Steinhart GMT is seems they have modified their bezel font to match its "more famous and expensive look-a-like". They are available week 31 and I am sorely tempted.

    VFM I don't think you can knock either your watch or the Steinhart.

    Thanks

    Look ok - but again I'm, not a huge fan of something that wants to look very much like a very well know piece - hommages are different and a nice 1st edition EXPII might have more appeal to me - but on first impressions, the watch looks quite nice to me.
    It's just a matter of time...

    That's pretty... nice subtle flame to it...

    I used to have a CU22 many moons ago - lovely guitars!

    I completely failed to make the connection... Whenever I read PRS here my first thought is still Paul Reed Smith Guitars...

    I guess I get kept back a year in WIS School for such a school boy error!

    We won't be that harsh, just detention & 100 lines. Now write out 100 times " I MUST NOT FLIP MY PRS"

    While at lunch today at the local shops, I managed to spot all 3 of the above. The last one looked like it was in dire need of a service!
