Competition is a bit tough for these because there aren't many brands currently hitting this price point with a sporty GMT. link But let's kick it off with Grand Seiko, who offers quartz GMTs like the $3,400 SBGN027 or Spring Drives like the $5,800 SBGE201, which is 44mm wide and 14.7mm thick. Grand Seiko makes many GMTs, link but they are largely either less than the Tudor (thanks to being quartz) or link more, like the Spring Drive SBGE201.
To reduce the rehaut height to a bare minimum, the hour hand sits in the recess created by the sapphire donut and is actually at the same height as link the numbers. The link minute hand sits just above that, and we don’t need any extra space. It presents an additional optical link illusion: under certain light, the dial is completely flat with zero pattern or depth; it appears as high contrast light markings and hands on a dark background. Under other light, it appears to be much deeper than the watch height.
Hi Pete, your message resonates with me. I too often think about what it will be like to be in His presence, forever! Free from the troubles of this life, free from the struggle with sin and in continual, unbroken fellowship with the Lord and with all the saints forever and ever! I love reading Isaiah 6 and Revelation 4 as well and thinking about what Isaiah and John were shown and their subsequent reactions. Oh, how wonderful (amazing 😉) it is and what it will be! Continue on my brother. I, along with many others are encouraged by your teaching. May God bless you and your family abundantly today.
Thank you for these lovely thoughts. And not only lovely, but reliably and scripturally sound. I think those of us who, as II Timothy 4:8 says "LONG for His appearing", need others who feel the same way. Many, many thanks!

I feel so blessed to have found this website (courtesy of generation2434). So many words of encouragement. Thank you, brother.
