I don't think the 2824 has a GMT function. I've seen a modified 2836 (I think) where the day-of-the-week portion of the datewheel was modified to accomodate a GMT hand (Bernhardt Globemaster) but I think most GMTs with an ETA movement use the 2893-2 or some variant thereof. That's the movement in my DOXA 750T GMT.
I've read a couple comparisons between the 2824-2 and 2893-2, and most agree that the 2893-2 is a better movement and is generally more accurate. The one on my DOXA winds buttery smooth (almost like its not actually winding anything), much smoother than any 2824-2 that I own.
Yea I've never seen a 2824 modded for GMT only the 2836. And they have used a modded 2892 also but I think as you Eric the 2893 is the better choice and most used to I think.
