MWC GMT Dual Time Zone Watch – Covert Black PVD Stainless Steel
This GMT dual time zone watch in a covert black PVD stainless steel finish is one of MWC's latest models. It features a high-performance Ronda 515.24 quartz movement housed in a robust 300m (1000ft) water-resistant case, making it ideal for swimming, snorkeling, water sports, and scuba diving. However, as a GMT watch, the bezel is not specifically designed for diving applications.
Understanding GMT Watches
The GMT function is an elegantly simple yet highly effective innovation. Unlike conventional watches, where the hour hand completes a full cycle in 12 hours, a GMT watch includes a second hour hand that completes a full 24-hour cycle. This additional hand, combined with a 24-hour bezel scale, allows the wearer to track two time zones simultaneously.
Using the watch is straightforward:
The 24-hour hand moves once around the dial per day, instead of twice like a standard hour hand.
Its tip indicates the corresponding hour on the 24-hour scale, eliminating any confusion between a.m. and p.m.
MWC originally developed these watches for airline and navy pilots, as they enable easy tracking of time across two time zones. Thanks to its quartz movement, this model is particularly suited for frequent travelers or professionals who regularly operate in different time zones, offering hassle-free, low-maintenance reliability.
