·The GMT hand is supposed to line up with the Bezel (insert) ... not the hour indices.

So are you saying the bezel markers are also not "supposed" to line up with the hour markers? That's a first for me...makes me wonder how you line that hand up with the movement out of the case...😉

··Omega Qualified WatchmakerGMT hand tracks 24 hour bezel. I’m assuming OP has never owned a GMT watch before.
The GMT hand may "track" the bezel, but the bezel markers line up with the dial markers, at least if the watch is made properly. Therefore the hand should also line up with the dial markers. Trust me I've serviced a lot of GMT watches, so I know how this works.
As I mentioned, the bezel isn't there when you are installing the hands, so it's impossible to line the hands up with the bezel on installation. The hands are all lined up to markers on the dial when they are installed, so if these don't line up with markers as they should, it's a quality issue.

·Another shot for prosperity.
I think you meant "posterity" and autocorrect took over 😀
I love the cheerful tropical color scheme as the watch isn't trying to pretend to be some stern tool watch reincarnation.
however do me a favor...put the freakin thing back on it's bracelet and put away the tools before someone gets hurt.

·Nope, I actually meant prosperity, as in "abundance or wealth" vs posterity which actually means "future or future state".

·I think initially a couple of the Gulfs sold at 2.7 on forums, but given this Hodinkee release took longer to sell out than the original Zodiac.com release, I doubt these will trade above MSRP. Hopefully the speculators will learn a tough lesson
