Surprised nobody has mentioned the Bell & Ross GMT. Had this for a couple of years and can highly recommend it for under the radar value for money and build quality against other brands in the same price range.

I have such mixed emotions about B&R. Being a pilot I appreciate the aviation inspired themes and their design first philosophy..
BUT
They use off the shelf Sellita movements and ask quite a premium for their pieces. It would be hard to spend 3-10k for a watch when the identical movement is used in watches around the $1k price range. Look what Laco and Stowa are bringing to the table for around a grand.
I actually love the BR-05 (AP lookalike).... but over 5k for a SW300 (or something like that IIRC) is a little crazy. If B&R were closer to Oris in price point, say, $2200-$2500 SRP with a negotiated price of around $1800-2k or so, I'd probably have a few of them, including the BR-V2 93 GMT.
