Congrats on your 1st post
You even got a warmer welcomes from the masters here compare to my 1st post (maybe they knew that somehow I would turn into a nuisance).
Funnily, I do NOT have any GMT or world timer. I use the crudest way: I wear 1 watch on each wrist, left for the current time zone, the right for home time zone 
. Easily adjustable, and I get to depreciate my watch faster.
If I were to buy GMT watch, I would get blancpain leman gmt alarm titanium.

My First Ever Post : )
After visiting The Purist, and now WatchProSite, for several years, I think now could be the time to make my first post. From the beginning I've developed an affinity for dual time, GMT, world time watches. Over the years I've tried to identify varying ti...
This posting gves us all HOPE......
Two Timer, Your maiden post gives us all hope that long time lurkers will eventually become active PuristS contributors. For a 1st post, it was very well thought out. Now you only need 1999 more to get to Ronald's milestone click here But, what a long wai...
PIAGET for your Type 8 watches....
I like chronographs and 2 time zone displays are really useful in our globalised lives. So here are a few suggestions for a combined chronograph with 2nd 24-h indication (or GMT) display. Piaget Polo Chronograph with extra-caliber jewels hmmmm....maybe to...
Hands too short, hands too long - is there any watch where they are right?
Sorry, dear MTF, you know that I appreciate the important role played by Piaget in the history of Swiss watchmaking, and I also like their fresh way of engineering and development. However, should this be a general amnesty for crimes against basic design ...
I agree mostly ........
Marcus, I agree mostly that the hands' lengths for the chronograph/time displays are....er....'sub-optimal' It is a justifiable rant. Thank goodness, TwoTimer is mainly interested in the dual time display as the entry criterium for the collection. Your ra...
Welcome Two Timer!
How I wish too to have unlimited fund. Those are nice pieces with a consistent theme. The Union Glashutte piece looks good! What do you have in mind for #6 to #8? Kong
The shortlist...
I'm always on the lookout for new presentations of the dual time function, but the current crop of out-of-this-world case designs sometimes leaves me with mixed feelings. Right now I spend most of my time pondering over these models: Dual Time with Big Da...
As for the Panerai GMT
The mosti nteresting, to me, is the Arktos GMT ( 500 pieces ) or the Pam 252 aka North Pole, limited to 500 pieces, too, which is bascally the same than the 186, but with a deep Blue dial instead of a black one... Nice Watches, with a story behind, and GM...
As for the Panerai GMT
Hi Amanico, The Arktos looks great. I was also thinking along the lines of this PAM. Understand it was one of their earlier GMTs....
Personally, I find this one less interesting than the 252 or the 186
Less tastefull, let's say. The Arktos are better conceived, to my eyes, and there s a story behind. Best, Nicolas
The shortlist (updated)
Forgot to include another one of my hopefuls...the Grand Seiko GMT SBGM001. Gosh...the pursuit of happiness sure is tough. Dual Time with Big Date - Baume et Mercier Hampton Square - Bell & Ross BR 03-51 - Ulysse Nardin GMT Perpetual - probably beyond my ...
SBGM001 would be this
I recommend this watch! Very flashy dial, great movement, solid case and excellent bracelet. Feels very good on your arm and doesn't hurt your pocket that badly! NIcely finished inside too, though it has a solid caseback so you can't see inside without a ...
Big Date GMT
I'm surprised you didn't list the UN non-perpetual in your list of GMT and big date, it's one of the classics: On the other hand, if you come into some money I would NEVER dissuade someone from the GMT Perpetual A...
Welcome, and many thanks for presenting your collection!
I think it is always fascinating to observe the growing of collections that are based on a specific topic, in your case: GMT/World Time watches. You have already a very nice little collection here, of very different styles. While being aware that your col...
As a first post, this is a great one!
What a presentation post, Two Timer! It is a real pleasure to welcome you here! I must confess, like you, a certain weakness for GMT Watches, and for Alarms, too. Back to your watches, I'm really impressed by the rugged style of your Sinn. When you have t...
May I say that I like all your watches.
You have a "thinking man's" collection. At least to me. I am so happy to see such a range of pieces...these are exactly what gives depth to this hobby. You have entered the hobby at the best of times..when you can buy watches at prices that many of us suf...

Thanks for making my first post so memorable
Just like to say a big thanks for the favourable response to my first post. Marcus has definitely set me thinking about dual time zone watches in another dimension - "stay at home" and "travel to there". Kong's question went a long way to help me to cryst...
I like dual times very much too, though I still do not have one.
I would like to read your opinion on this: Seems to be one of the best buys available, but maybe a bit too big for my taste. What do you think of it? By the way, be very welcome, Two Timer! And congratulations for the beautiful collection Marcelo...
That's a nice one to start with,,,
Hi Marcelo, Thanks for your kind words. If budget is an issue, I'd say this is a great piece to begin with. In my opinion, the red 24hr markers against the white dial exudes a simple elegance. Not too over-the-top. The ML that I have is rather similar, al...
More choices: a decoupled 2nd time zone, for fractional time zones; others
It's a bit too complex to describe WHY we need or have 1/2 or 3/4 hour time zones, but why not have a watch for when you need to visit those places??? Here's one candidate, the IKEPOD ISOPODE, with lots of other quirky features too, such as wacky rubber s...
Another vote for Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Grande GMT
First of all, welcome to our society where we talk about wristwatches all the time. I especially like the Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Grande GMT. I think this is a great watch with classic good looks, an in-house movement, and it's reasonably affordable. A b...
Hi twotimer
Nice themed collection there. How about one of these with chronograph? You can actually end up with 3 timezones on this; main dial, subdial at 6 and the inner rotating bezel. Enough to keep anyone amused I should think ;-) OKay, I don't know how I ended u...
You are a very focus collector, Congrate.
I like your Union Glashutte which is very interesting. Regards Ling
Beautiful watches!
And welcome to the posting world. I think you have made excellent well thought out selections in your collection and I like the fact you have connected them to special times in your life. These are the marks of a true "Purist" at heart. Hope to see many m...
Grand Seiko GMT SBGM001
After seeing the pictures posted above, my love for the GS GMT grew stronger. I was initially looking to get the Rolex GMTIIC probably next year but now may lean more towards the GS. Great quality build i must say from the current Seiko/GS in possession. ...
Congrats on your first post...
...and thanks for joining us! You have a great collection and your pictures are wonderful. What a fantastic way to start your non-lurking life on PPro! Welcome, and I look forward to reading more from you! Cheers! Daos
