 I just received in the mail a sample of the GMT case, it is really fantastic. a great size that fits my 6.5in wrist perfectly, and very comfortable. I have tested both rubber straps and they both fit me, but the larger strap (B) has a lot of strap left over... this is a good strap for the larger wrists, but a smaller wrist can get away with either size. I have also photographed it next to my Marathon GSAR to show the greater size of the Benarus GMT. I did not get a sample of the Mesh bracelet yet.

I will post more photos of the case soon.

 VERY COOL!!!woohoo.gifJOB WELL DONE!!

I like the first strap but the second strap just does not cut it....sorry. The design does not flow very well and it seems to distract from the watch.  I hope the first strap can fit a 7.5 wrist.

Maybe you can change the second strap design????Thumbsup3.gif

 This is looking to be another goodie. Hard to tell without the innards, but as far as case size, this is definitely a winner. Cannot wait to see what the mesh bracelet wil look like. Thanks for the update Steve!

 Ummm... The steel case is the same size as the PVD, and if you had been following you would know it will be an additional add on for those who want one. Those who are still on the fence, you better jump on it while the getting is good.

Prefer strap A. Would like to see the steel case. Any word on timing of the automatic movt? Is a mesh bracelet planned for the GMT?

I don't have a steel case yet, but Ralf has the bead blasted one. The automatic will come after we secure the 100 movements and get a completion time from the factory, these things can take unexplainable time. yes the mesh will be available on the automatic as well.

 Hey Steve... Will we see the Benarus logo on the crown, or is it too small?

I love that strap B - in fact, I'm a bit sorry to admit, it's the one I picked out for our new Model Q, as well!

 Looks Fantastic thus far... Steve is the bezel goofy for some reason or are you hiding it for a surprise later?
