How could I have missed this post, Brice?

I know I'm late to the party but I'm with William: the one that Skip's got strapped on his wrist is my choice.hand6.gif

ah ah! How did you miss it indeed?:) maybe you just blocking my posts because i am a bad influence like Ral said abovesubtlelaugh.gif

Anyway, I gotta admit it was a close race b/w this poseidon LE I bought vs the Navy BLue dial or even the charming and different orange race GMTs. In the end I could not decice but then I got a good deal on the Poseidon LE and loved its different dial, textured, numbered and color combination. I could not find the blue Navy GMT for less than 600-800$, this one was much less... which made it a winner;)

But like I sad in another post, I am not excluding the idea of of getting one of the other model GMTs later one, but probably used to it is cheaper, as I LOVE THE GMTs but also there is nothing like having the watch in hand and on the wrist to compare them and decide which is the best fit for you... I can always flip onecrap.gif

So a blue dial like Skip's is not out of the question in my futureBouncy.gif if I can find a gently used one or a good deal on the net!

 

Thanks! brice

Thanks Chris. I'll post my own shots including wrist shots and my impressions. I cannot wait to get it. I have been wanting a Hami GMT for a while though not this specific one, I was more into the classic look of the blue or black Navy models. But this one spoke to me when I saw it and the price was just too good to pass and not check it out in person;)
you know you want one;) you got PM
cheers

this is a beautiful GMT, Hami built a more classy one with the Jazzmaster and I like it. Thanks for posting it.
Any rules against having more than one Hami GMT??;) subtlelaugh.gif

That's really a looker, Simon. Is it a 40mm? I like the hands and indeces a lot and just the right touches of gold, which by the way breached US$1,100 per ounce already.hand6.gif.

Those of us with sgnificant gold content in their watches bought about 1999-2002 are now looking at paper profits on the values of our pieces simply on material costs alone.ThumbsUp02.gif
