GMT Projects Ten Six Watches

GMT Two

05/25/201801/12/2021

I like all things Black and White, especially with an additional point of contrast. The GMT Two is my first quartz build and I decided to put this preference into practice.


10/6 GMT Two
GMTs are great for anyone who regularly travels or likes keeping track of two timezones. A quartz movement is a nice idea for a GMT since it requires the extra task of setting the 24-hour hand. If you want to be able to quickly pick it up and go, having it constantly running on battery is a reasonable approach.

The details:

  • Name: Based on two primary colors (black & white) and two timezone capability.
  • Availability: https://www.etsy.com/listing/615649491/106-gmt-two-a-custom-travelers-watch
  • Diameter: 35mm
  • Height: 8.7mm
  • Case: Black PVD
  • Movement: Swiss Made Ronda 515.24h, Quartz
  • Power Reserve: Battery
  • Jewels: 1
  • Hands: Black with lume, red GMT hand
  • Frequency: 32,768 Hz
  • Crystal: Sapphire, Flat
  • Water Resistance: 30m/100ft
  • Strap Pictured: Genuine leather, white, 18mm
  • Price: $195

This is a simple design, but a solid timepiece with a Swiss quartz movement and sapphire crystal within the black PVD case. And it certainly stands out (including at night)!

The watch diameter is a little on the smaller side (35mm) so it is best suited for a smaller wrist. The crown guard helps protect the crown from being accidentally touched or moved given lots of movement. The battery is new, so it should be a while before it needs replaced. To lengthen the life just keep the stem pulled out.

This 10/6 GMT Two is currently for sale on my Etsy store.
