I didn't see this model before. Beautiful.

This big boy just landed. Japanese made Wancher GMT with 3 time zones feature and Seagull ST1612 movement. The ceramic bezel is very nice. The lume is also awesome.

Have a wonderful night, Comrades.

Nice looking watch, then I read the reviews, now not so sure, though I do love the look of the Sea Serpent

This Seaserpent is also a looker. Do the reviews concern about the movement? I am curious now.

Read 4 or 5 different reviews, none were giving rave reviews mostly citing issues with bezels, accuracy and suchlike though they all liked the look. Just seem to point to QC issues.
Given the price I would be tempted though I would want to know more about the movements as they don't always seem to be specified through different models.

I see. I have been accuracy testing this Astronaut II GMT model since I received it. I will write a review about my findings regarding the entire watch. I will give you a head up.
