That's a more wearable size, looks really nice. Wonder if it is brushed? If so, then that's a winner. Really like the new bezel.

I was wondering the same thing. In that picture, the bezel looks brushed, case looks polished. That would be a good thing. Also, is this a Basel 2012 preview?

Much more sensible size. Still not convinced by the bezel font though.

Font is still ugly but the overall layout of the bezel is much nicer. The numbers are smaller, it's an actual 24 hour GMT bezel now, and the slashes between the numbers looks good. If it's brushed then that watch has a lot of potential. Not sure why they printed the 24 hours on the outer portion of the dial as well?

Interesting that they duplicated the 24hr 2nd time zone onto the bezel that is already existing on the dial. As a medium sized dial I'm not sold on the look as much as it does its job as being an over powering look on a 47mm dial.

Can't you technically have three time zones with the number on the bezel, dial and the regular hour hand?

Yes, which is precisely why they did it. I must say I really like the looks of that watch. Still probably a bit big for me, but my first impression was, "Sh#t that is one damn good looking watch." Brushed bezel helps it a lot.

Didn't see this one coming at all.

I really like it. the only thing I don't like is that the GMT hand doesnt have lume. But that's a minor detail. Is the movement on this piece "in house"?

Good thought, I didn't even think about that, that is a great idea! Good thing it's too small for my taste or I would have my order in already and hate my existing Chronomat GMT.

Great looking watch! Much better size. I can't wait to see more versions.

Liking it a lot, if it's brushed I'll def take a look at it.

I'm liking this watch a lot. What bracelet does this come in?
