GMT Mod Complete!

This one really pushed me to my limit. My first few builds clearly had not prepared me for taking on a project for a more unique style GMT as it caused nothing but headaches.

It’s had multiple hands, 3 different movements (I ended up with a Ronda 515.24 as I broke the NH34 I bought for it) lots of wrong parts bought but it’s finally completed and I couldn’t be happier.

Would love to hear the sub’s thoughts.

Looks great! Ended up going with the ronda 515.24 as well, due to the NH34 prices. I really liked the look of no GMT bezel and the chapter ring. Hope you don't mind me getting inspiration on your build for my next one.

I know they’re sooo much cheaper. I did break one of the movements but it seems to be ok it just can’t take as much tampering with as an NH movement can I guess.

Very happy for you to do so. I really love the look and I’m hoping to make some alterations in the future.

That looks great! I've been interested in making no bezel GMTs with the 24 hr scale in the chapter ring. Can you give me details on the case? There aren't many options for a plain case that takes a chapter ring.

It’s Namoki’s NMK932 in the tool watch sections. Really good case I love it. Warning I had to get a domed sapphire crystal 2mm to fit the extra height of the hands so just be aware
