    I've had watches with a GMT hand but for me it always felt completely redundant. How hard is it to deduct 5 hours from your local time when you are dealing with people in New York? :)

    Did anyone notice that you can't buy replacement bezels from Steinhart website anymore? Noticed it on WUS a few weeks back.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    I find gmt handy as I work with a US based company. I can tell without thinking what time it is there by just looking at the watch.. handy for travel to when I'm there dont have to do the sums half asleep from jet lag

    I always find with a GMT because its 24hour clock that I end up having to think about it a good bit, far more than say taking 5 hours off the regular time. Oh look the GMT hand is between 16 and 18...thats 17 which is five in the afterooon...maybe I am just a bit simple.
