Key Features

• GMT Functionality: Equipped with a four-hand GMT movement, this watch allows you to monitor a second time zone with ease. Whether you’re coordinating international meetings or keeping in touch with colleagues across the globe, the GMT hand provides quick, reliable reference without disrupting the primary time display.
• Anti-Reflective Sapphire Crystal: The domed sapphire crystal not only enhances durability with superior scratch resistance but also features an anti-reflective coating that minimizes glare. This ensures the dial remains clearly visible in bright sunlight or under artificial lighting—ideal for travelers and professionals alike.
• Textured World Map Dial: The blue dial stands out with its intricate world map design, rendered in raised detail to emphasize global connectivity. The latitude and longitude lines add depth and a sense of exploration, making the watch not just a timekeeper but a conversation piece.
• Roman Numeral Markers & Date Window: Classic Roman numerals at each hour position reinforce the watch’s traditional appeal, while the date window at 3 o’clock offers everyday convenience for scheduling and planning.
• Black Embossed Alligator Leather Strap: The strap is crafted from high-quality leather with an embossed alligator texture and finished with subtle tone-on-tone stitching. The deployment buckle ensures a secure, adjustable fit while maintaining a sleek profile on the wrist.
• Automatic Movement: This self-winding mechanism operates through the natural motion of the wearer’s wrist, delivering reliable timekeeping without batteries. It’s a nod to traditional watchmaking, appealing to those who value precision and mechanical artistry.
• Water Resistant: Designed to handle everyday exposure to moisture, such as handwashing or light rain, this watch offers practical protection for daily wear. However, it is not intended for swimming or diving.
