The Archimede Pilot 42 GMT is trippin’ time zones
The rest of the Archimede Pilot 42 GMT is standard fare, in terms of the case, handset, and dial. Well, ok, the dial isn’t exactly the same as other Fliegers. You do have the 24-hour track inside of the main hour indices (please note, all hands stretch to their appropriate track). You also will notice that there’s a date window (color-matching for the win) showing up at the 6 o’clock position. This is not totally uncommon on a Flieger, but it looks to be particularly well-executed here.
Globe Trotting with the Hager GMT Traveler
So, do you remember that Hager Commando that we reviewed a bit ago? (If not, you can read up on it here). Now that we’re up to speed, you will recall that I certainly did like what I saw with that watch. What if, however, you could change out the Miyota 9015 for something Swiss,…

Then again, why should the addition of a relatively simple complication elevate a basic sports watch so much in my book? I have my reasons for it, most simply because it mixes up what…
Crossing timezones with the Christopher Ward C60 Trident Pro GMT 600
Ok, dear reader – it’s time for me to dive back into the world of GMT watch reviews. As you can see from that article title, we’re diving back into the catalog of Christopher Ward. It’s not my first time looking at their watches, nor the first time with their C60 Trident lineup. The very…
Travelling around with the Ball Pilot GMT
Over the past few years, I’ve dipped into the Ball catalog more than a few times, and have sampled quite a variety of their offerings. With my renewed focus on models with GMT complications, it was only natural I would return to that well. Surprisingly (for me), the watch I was looking for is part…
Flying High with the Oris Big Crown ProPilot GMT
As you may have noticed, I have been working specifically to focus in on reviewing GMT watches lately. This has been my favorite complication for some time now, and I am of course aware of some of the “big” models that are out there, the ones everyone thinks of from Switzerland. That said, there are…
