Prsist Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 I'm selling my Panerai 051 and have been offered a Rolex GMT Master IIc (the trader says it's regulated and Swiss ETA movt). I'ver heard so many things about the movement I'm a little gunshy. I've read the WHS has a better track record than the CHS but I'm not in the mood to deal with a watch with a history of question marks behind it. The GMT is what got me into watches so I do like the piece. Just wanted to get feelers from fellow members. Whatcha think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panerai153 Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 I have a GMT IIC WHS (2836-2) on my wrist right now. It is running about 3 seconds fast in over three days since I set it with the atomic clock!I sent it to The Zigmeister for a relume and wanted to change out the movement to a 2893-2, but that proved impossible. Now I'm glad I didn't, as this one is running great. the only other modification I would like to make is replace the crystal with a genuine, or at least one with an AR'ed cyclops. I probably wear this watch more than the next three together. Long story short, I don't think you can go wrong with the Ceramic GMT with the ETA movement.

By-Tor Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 Nice one Arthur. I don't have mine anymore but it was definitely a nice replication. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
