what are you trying to say,that maybe I've changed my mind since saying this, back around your last visit in Feb...?...
   
I still wouldn't buy 1 with that GMT movement or any version of the rep eta 2836 GMT mod.in it......even if the version used in the H2O is the 1 being produced by a Swiss Co.(Leschot S.A),who does a mod to a 2836 which allows it to adapt a 24 hr. hand(I'm not sure if they actually produce the completed eta 2836 GMT mod)
...the eta 2836 GMT does not exist in the eta catalog,and was originally a mod done in India to the Hangzhou 6306,later picked up by the Asians,and used primarily in replica watches...this GMT mod is not reliable and parts if needed for repair down the road are hard to come by.
...I still like the looks of the Kalmar,enough to pre-order 1 with the eta 2824...ThumbsUp02.gif
