  • The new Series 8 GMT might just be the ideal GMT watch to buy, not just for its "True GMT" movement - (allowing the hour hand to jump as you move between timezones), its relatively affordable price, and its other features, that together make it a useful piece to consider if you are travelling the world. Find out how the True GMT in this watch differs from the more ubiquitous (and in our opinion less useful Office GMT version) in our detailed explanation.

    The 41mm watch on my relatively slender wrist appears to be only 39mm-40mm. The watch is not as bulky as it appears on videos and is much better looking in person. I have the Pepsi bezel version.

    With the Miyota 9075 becoming more available, the prices of flyer or traveler GMT watches have gone down significantly. You can get a reliable microbrand for $600.

    Setting the gmt hand to gmt time (the part which you say is difficult) is actually really simple once you commit to it. And very cool with the tricks you can do

      Bulova Wilton and Citizen Series 8 GMT both uses a different movement caliber.
      The Wilton uses cal.9075 with only 42 hours power reserve, -10 to +30 secs/day and 4,800 A/m antimagnetic.
      As for the Series 8 GMT, it comes with a cal.9054 with 50 hours power reserve, -10 to +20 secs/day and 16,000 A/m antimagnetic.

    It’s a very handsome watch. But it is overpriced in Canada at 2300.00 I think not. I could buy a Longines for that money.

      @@mauricioposada4485 I have a Traska gmt with the same movement, 150wr that got water damage by just getting in the sea and barely wet, I have read other reviews where JM got water issues too. Thankfully they were super good at Traska and fixed the watch, but then again I put money on the table that this wouldn't have happened with Citizen.
