The GMT2C does not have a Glidelock clasp... it has what's called the Easylink comfort extension. This link shows how it works: www.rolex.com/en/rolex-watches/milgauss/easylink It's for the Milgauss but is same as the GMT Cheers JG

I was in the same boat as you last month... the GMT IIC was always my 'go to' watch - I'd wear it nearly every day despite two full boxes! I eventually bit the bullet and bought the gen a few weeks ago - it's beautiful! The bezel colouring is fantastic compared to rep. If you want one and like me don't want to tie up the cash in these volatile times then if you ask nicely at Watches of Switzerland they'll give you 3 years 0% finance. Cheers and Merry Christmas! JG

Welcome from another UK lad. If you need any guidance feel free to drop me a message. JG

Go for the Rlx Pro-Hunter range - the Milgauss and GMTII C are particularly nice.

Another excellent review and another potential watch for my wrist!

I've not been in there for a while - always wearing a rep when I'm walking past :-) Will have to don my Steinhart tomorrow and pop in! They've been caught now, looks like they've been very busy boys! Argus link

Congrats on the buy J! Did you buy locally? Obviously not from those fellas who've been helping themselves to our local jewellers front windows recently! ;-)

Have a look here http://www.watches.co.uk/watches/gents-wat...-heuer-watches/

That dark brown hide (and strap of course!) is stunning! Almost chameleon like as it changes colour :-)

Yeah I think they must have launched it to coincide with the start of 24 day 7!

Another fantastic work of art!

Welcome and merry christmas! I'm in Brighton too - Seven Dials. As B16A2 said, time for a seaside GTG soon. James

Superb review, thank you.

Wow! Incredible piece of art.

Having grown a little weary of the unpredictable QC of reps recently and given that the pound to dollar rate makes it difficult to gamble I've decided to order one of these: It's a Yokoboys modded Seiko SXK007. I think very nice! What do you guys think? JG

Completely agree with you TomH - all purchases on hold for a while! I work for a Tier 1 IT manufacturer and as we buy in components etc in USD but sell in GBP for the first time ever prices are going up after decades of an average year on year 10% price drop. Customers can't believe it! Many predict GBP:USD will hit 1.0:1.4 once Obama is in office which will play havoc with my sales and buying anything in USD!!

Hi people Jakub returned my watch today!! It's not been fixed - the crystal was chipped when he returned to me previously but this proves he's still alive and must be trying to make amends somehow... Guys, keep your hopes up, looks like this will take time but hopefully you'll get yours too. JG

Great review BT. Thank you. And yes, we need lug holes!

Thanks Dadog So the Tudor sub is $1000.... when the

OK I may be being really stupid but I cannot find the 'Registration' link on j&w.com which will give me access to pricing, however horrendous it may be! Please could someone enlighten me? I have the taste for a Tudor Snowflake and this Phong guy may be able to sate it :-)

I really like this one... could be my first gen. Has anyone seen retail prices yet?

I'm in London most of the week.

Great review BT, thank you.
