Hey Ricardo,

Man I love that one, I actually dropped by an AD close to my office the other day to see if they had one, unfortunately they didn’t but they did have a chronofighter oversize diver that I took for a spin. It was nice but not nearly as nice as the GMT you have.

I checked the Graham wedsite and it looks like they have changed the model a bit, the GMT is only available in red, blue and green, I couldn’t find the orange one, on the plus side it appears as though the new models include a display back which would be pretty cool.

Anyways, thanks again for the photos and great review, although I am blaming you for the $$ I am about to spend as I am seriously considering picking one of these up now.

S

Thank You for Your kind words Mr S.

The Chronofighter is a beautiful and unique timepiece. If you are not bothered about the attention the watch will recieve and the constant, obvious, question of "What does that lever thing do?" then go for it. The watch is slightyl overpriced at the MRRP in my humble opinion. However, I do know an AD currently offering 35% off their Graham stock.

Drop me a PM if you are interested. They are located in the UK but they should still be able to help you.

They are £7000 in the UK, so I guess about 10000 US dollars.

Superb review with a good selection of pics :)

That really is a very interesting piece, and I love the engineering that goes into them 8) Maticulous attention to detail.

I passed up the opportunity to buy a brand new Ti Chronofighter at half retail. Do I regret it? Yes :cry:
