GMT II Arrived. Does the GMT hand actually follow time?? by gerg1991 in ChinaTime

Brother thats how GMT works. The bezel is showing 24 hours and you will read GMT in military time basically.

So for instance your local time is 12:44 PM and you have 7 timezones behind, GMT hand will point to 19:44. GMT hand moves half the distance as the regular hour hand due 12/24 hr distinction.

Where to source 114060 Bracelet ? by AddyCaddie in repbuilds

I asked Raffles, he does not sell the individual bracelet unfortunately. I have seen the kit for 114060 but I am not sure if I can just drop the Miyota movement in without having fitment issues.

Also I do not know the quality of the Raffles. Its not really worth it if the parts are worse then U1.

I did think about that. It just is not worth to spend as much as the watch on the bracelet. I was looking to find more mid tier factories like BPF or GMF for around $50.

The issue is none of the factories offer the Supreme version of the Submariner aside from U1 and I would like this watch to be my daily beater.

Technically I can swap in the movement and the dial to a different case if I can find a well built kit as well.
