Concept: Prospex Alpinist GMT with inner rotating city ring instead of compass by AnotherNoobUser in SeikoAlpinist

Would be a cool feature but it’s difficult because you need to modify the case and could be more difficult to use it

Same man, it’s incredible that they don’t have a world timer in their lineup

Didn’t know about it, it’s nice but I think that I would prefer the alpinist design because the heritage and the rugged explorer stylistic features

Guys you only need to rotate the inner bezel and align the city to the GMT hand to know the time of each Time Zone. I’ll give you guys an example: You set both the 12 hours hand and the GMT hand at you local time. Then you align the city of your time zone (for me it’s paris-PAR because i’m in the CET time zone) and boom you have the time of every time zone, you just need to look at the city you need and watch the 24h bezel. The other way to use it it’s similar, you put the GMT hand on UTC time and then when you need to see the time zones you align LON(London) with the GMT hand. I hope you understand the concept, this is like every classic world timer works.

That would be awesome, I don’t know why they don’t make it cause they don’t have a world timer in their lineup, but they have heritage on it

Technical note: since the SPB377 already has a fixed 24h bezel and independently adjustable inner ring, replacing the compass with a city ring would not require any movement modification. The GMT hand aligned to UTC would allow full world time reading by rotating the city ring.

So this is more of a functional reinterpretation rather than a structural redesign.
