is/was GP high-end?
Anyway, just got this lovely 38mm alarm, 2nd time zone piece. So far very impressed.

It looks nice, just the strap Is bit off.
Indeed it’s been fitted with a 20mm GP strap. I’m on the hunt now for a 21mm. The colour seems to work though.

Similar to the IWC UTC IW325102.but with an alarm added. Would be nice is all of the number fonts matched.

There were a number of dial styles, but the gmt & Date wheels were all the same apart from colour.

I dislike when they put irregular lug widths and then narrow down the choice of straps.

I had a Seamaster 300 also 21mm. Luckily there are a few options, although the 16mm GP tang buckle limits it a bit further!

GP imho is under appreciated high end…..its movement also used by others, my GG fantasy retro anniv is one og them. IWC made a nice 21-16mm strap or go custom.

They are lovely watches, and the twin crown configuration is a winner. I've liked them from afar for a long time, and missed getting a great deal once and regretted it ever since.

The other GP watch that stuck with me once I tried it on was the Sea-Hawk II diver.

I too always admired the GP Traveller, as we’ll regret pulling the trigger to purchase one a few years ago. It’s a nicely designed watch to my eye. GP is a high-end watch company that is under appreciated in my opinion. Enjoy your GP watch in good health.

Very nice watch above, mine a bit older (2006), excellent workman ship runs like a top!

That’s a beauty. In fact mine are about 10 years older. Probably around 1997. Interestingly I only just noticed they are on 30 serial numbers apart!

If you don't mind, what is the reference number?

The salmon dial on your traveler is especially nice! Seems as thoughy they can track 3 time zones?
