At $249 This Is THE BEST Value Micro GMT!

[@ivankerr3570]

The straight case between the lugs is fantastic. I don’t know why others don’t do this as it means straps and bracelets look fitted instead of having a huge gap. Breitling does this .

[@crownhandle]

Same with me, love it. I own some rubber bands with curvature for Seiko5 and SKX, but they are expensive and you can't put them on other watches. At the moment I replaced almost all of my divers with Marine Nationale Straps. For me this is the ultimate combination of comfort and practicality.

[@alfieakaronaldog]

I guess because a curved case looks better with a curved bracelet. The only time it works perfectly in both situations is on a rectangular watch like a Santos. 100% agree on not wanting an odd shape gap though.

[@watcheswithabdullah]

I've met Kevin, the creator of Revelot. And I couldn't believe how much of a design perfectionist this guy is! The level of attention that each detail gets is insane for its price!

[@Revelot_Official]

Thanks abdullah! Hope you are having a good time in Saudi!

[@WristWatching]

This is definitely its own thing. Proud to see a Malaysian brand releasing a truly original GMT!

[@younusimam-thesalamproject6340]

On my Signum GMT, I do find it a little tricky at times to time different tasks with a 24-hour bezel, so i can see the utility of the 60 min bezel. This is not bad as you still keep track of the timezone with the chapter ring but the design is not too cluttered. This thing is close to perfect, would buy but im all in on saving for my grail!

[@AwkwardHorology]

I love the new influx of GMT’s on the marketplace as of late! I know you’re not a fan of Myiota movements but I really rate their travellers gmt and especially in micros brands like Traska and Marloe! Game changer!!

[@JDRevene]

The Marloe is stunning

[@DarrenBates]

Probably not my cup of tea but I love that they've gone for something "out there" instead of just making an homage to the same pieces like so many other microbrands. I don't mind the straight endlinks, I think they suit the style and I definitely don't mind that's a dive watch first - Seiko's new solar GMTs have done the exact same thing.

[@jochenasel]

I just got an Aragon Divemaster Titanium GMT on a rubber strab for just 149$. With 45mm a little bit on the bigger side, but still wareable.

[@yohanntoutain2682]

I received mine yesterday, the watch is beautiful and the quality is top notch.

[@chronocommander007]

Sugess, are they a microbrand? have a Seestern-branded Explorer II hommage with a Seiko NH-34 GMT movement. Looks pretty good and doesn't have the horrific cylclops that even the Steinhart has.

[@-Medici]

Plus they also have the micro adjust on the clasp, i think.

[@nickgask1315]

Got mine earlier this week. (Arctic white) Very comfortable to wear on the bracelet and has great lume. Second hand is almost invisibly thin but no big deal.

[@tarantel582]

I am really impressed by this watch. The Design ist great, it is a tool watch that doesnt look like one. I actually think, priorizing Dive capabilities over GMT is exactly the right choice. A GMT ist nothing you need all the time and at a quick glance, the Diving bezel however will only be used when it is an easy and fast Option to using the Phone. I usually dont like GMT watches, but i think, this design could make me want one

[@Revelot_Official]

Thank you! Hope to see you at the launch on 3rd May!

[@WatchGuyJive]

I would actually argue the Aragon Divemaster GMT is the best value at $149 or $179 for the lumed dial. It doesn’t come with a metal bracelet but it has a titanium case, sapphire crystal, and sapphire bezel. It’s a little big at 45mm but will fit most wrists.

[@TheSara200424]

I hope jodi actually listens to people about aragon watches I own a few and they are built like a tank 👍👍👍

[@navajasrs2402]

Love the looks. Love the function. Love the lume. Love the price. Iffy on the bracelet. Hate the straps. Hate the size.

[@TheSara200424]

Sweet watch!!! How bout a Aragon Dive master Gmt in titanium with Sapphire glass for150$ I really think that would be the best deal for a Gmt 🔥🔥🔥

[@rascalap2968]

Try the Tandorio NH34 - essentially copy of GMT-Master II, so understand why you might not review it. But had mine, £100 on a jubilee delivered to UK, for a couple of months now and really enjoying it, so do please consider it. Switch it with my Mathey-Tissot, couple of Seikos, couple of Orients, vintage Garrards and Longines, and my one expensive watch - Sinn 856S, but keep coming back to the Tandorio - just feels right and puts a smile on my face.

[@johnathankaszynski9688]

I would really love to see a three hand version of this watch. I really like the design, but I’m not into GMTs.

[@markkuzminski3922]

Thanks Jody. I have a Hexmariner 39 which I am wearing now. It was running disappointingly fast when I received it (just within spec). So, I checked it for magnetism (yep). A few passes over my demagnitiser, and now it runs like a dream. Try checking yours out. I am on the Revelot mailing list, and in the prelaunch info on the Admiral, they state that the straight lugs were a deliberate choice to allow the bracelet to be used on watches with the same lug width. Not a bad thought when you consider the OTF adjustment.

[@Revelot_Official]

Thank you markkuz for the support on the Hexmariner! Hope to see you at the launch on 3rd May!

[@jeff1176]

That rubber strap is just like the rubber strap on my sbdc053. Its also the reason i dont wear rubber straps along with the grimey sweaty feeling. Id put it on a leather strap or keep the bracelet.

[@kiwicory100]

Competent and comprehensive review as always well done! Regarding this watch, because the 12, 3, 6 and 9 indices are all joined up on the face all I can see is some sort of four leaf clover/poppy or something. As such it ruins the watch for me, and aside from the fact the watch is a “when is a GMT watch not a GMT watch” vibe. Hard pass for me. Can’t wait for your next awesomely thorough review.

[@ardie554]

Love the Stealthy case.. sharp edges..very clean.. Perfect honest review as usual. Thanks you Revelot.

[@scottbeckett4190]

Great video and more wonderful exposure to another microbrand. The dial is a bit busy for me. Not my cup of tea but another great video none the less. Merci!

[@christopherlombardi4958]

Its stunning. The case design is awesome. Signed up for the early bird, only issue is the artic or the meteorite dial.

[@Revelot_Official]

Thank you! See you at the launch this 3rd May :)

[@David-nx2vm]

The GMT complication seems to be an afterthought. I would consider a white dial version on a strap, if it had a bigger GMT hand and I could swap the dive bezel for a 24 hour bezel to track a third time zone.

[@Revelot_Official]

Thanks for your feedback, the GMT feature was meant to be secondary intentionally. It is meant to be a Divers first and a GMT second. However we do plan to increase the size of the GMT hand.

[@blanco325]

Aragon has a few models with a NH34 that are priced lower than this. One is titanium and another is day night, a third is a concept model. Jody stop ignoring that brand it is excellent.

The Aragon Divemaster GMT comes with a titanium case, a sapphire crystal and bezel, and a NH-34 movement. On a silicon strap it costs USD 179. I have the Pepsi version with a fully-lumed dial and the lume is pretty good. Prefer how it looks (in comparison to this) and it is far cheaper too.

[@patrickgraboski719]

OMG that green,,, yes I am a sucker for the color. With as much as you have made(lol) me spend over the yrs. sure would be nice if you helped a brother out. Keep up the good work I really enjoy your show.

Very interesting look, I like it, but as you said... not entirely functional. But do we wear watches for actual timekeeping anymore? 😏 Thanks Jody!

[@Aemdz8]

Saw an ad on Instagram and I have to say I really like the design (I own a Seiko samurai so it makes sense I guess 😂). It's very nice to see these microbrands offering excellent value when brands like Seiko and Hamilton are increasing their prices constantly and they're not the value monsters they used to be

[@Revelot_Official]

Thank you! Hope to see you at the launch this 3rd May :)

[@othnielmalcolm7410]

Hi Jodi, I love the watch information you have showcased. However, I am a bit apprehensive when it comes to preordering of micro brands. I have ordered a MW Timepiece Legato Diver from March of 2022 and have yet to receive a watch. The legato was hpyed by watch bloggers and here I am out of US $589.

[@80sju]

[@jamesblonde2271]

Like the angular case but that dial is not an easy read......bold tho

[@Furniture121]

I think that's the right way to do a GMT, it should be like a date, something you look for when you need it but isn't in the way all the time.

[@Revelot_Official]

Thank you! Hope to see you at the launch on 3rd May!

Great looking watch and the new Oceaneva GMT that will be coming out looks really nice also

[@simonosborne3047]

I like the GMT set-up - there when you need it; out of the way when you don't (most of the time?). Unlike the PD-1662 for example which steals the dive bezel, which unexplainably still rotates.

[@vir042]

24hours rotating bezel is to track a potential third timezone.. :P I know not super usefull, but if I understod your text correct now you know there at least in theory is an idea behind it ;)

[@markplayford5836]

Love the design but would prefer it without a date and GMT been honest. Perhaps smaller and thinner too. Just my personal preference but a very different and good looking watch. Nice price as well WINNER! 😊

[@sinjinadams2862]

Not a bad looking watch. Very interesting and unique looking dials. Tough segment though, there is a lot of competition out there.

[@RJ-cq8dd]

Great value for mony brand. I have the Hexmariner and still love its looks over a year later.

[@Revelot_Official]

Thank you for your support RJ!

[@watchchimp3102]

I got the bronze Hexmariner last year, and it was easily in my top 3 microbrand watches for 2022. Revelot seems to pay a lot more attention to watch thickness than most microbrands. Indeed, if the Hexmariner had a 9015 or similar movement, I'd be completely over the moon with it rather than just smitten. The NH34? MEH. This is a nice watch, but I'm not really feeling the dial design too much. Both Hexmariners were sellouts, so I'd be interested to see if they can update that design, and I might just buy another! Grade 5 titanium, maybe? 😅

[@Revelot_Official]

Actually the Hexmariner is on an NH35 :) the reasons is because our brand is made for novice enthusiast who just started to get into watch collecting or someone who already have many watches and wants something out of the norm yet affordable.

[@watchchimp3102]

@Revelot Yes, I was referring to the movement in the GMT. But, I get it. The NH35 is a solid movement, I've had few problems with them, but so many enthusiasts now are expecting a little more. The Hex is not thick, but a 9015 would allow you to make it even thinner! 👍 A great many punters out there won't even look at watches with a NH35 now; that's just how things have evolved.🤷‍♂️

[@Asefalexandernoorzai]

If actually prefer a non gmt version so the maximization of dive-ness and minimization of gmt-ness is a pro not a con. Idk why gmt is so popular rn, idk how many people really have use of regularly tracking a second tz. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@unaibb]

Jody, wich one do you consider is better watch and GMT: The Spinnaker Dumas GMT or this one?

[@Ian-dd5dm]

Though I did not get one, I was a big fan of the Revelot Hexmariner 39. I hope this Admiral sells well too. Not sure if it’s okay to mention another brand here, but another favorite microbrand of mine, VanBanner, has a new GMT called Adroit available for preorder now for about $245 USD. I think it looks really good. And to be clear, I have nothing to do with VanBanner. I’m just a guy who likes to buy too many watches 😁, and I thought people here would like to know that there’s another microbrand GMT out there for about $250 USD.

[@AppleGameification]

How would you compare the lume performance and readability of this white one vs the alkin model two?

The C3 will definitely have a more superior lume than the white. legibility wise cant go wrong with white dial and gunmetal black hands.

Looks very good value. Not the dial n case shape for me. I really like the discrete GMT hand/ markings.
