Reviews

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Duckworth Prestex Broadgate GMT Automatic

Owners widely praise Duckworth Prestex's customer service, with one owner receiving a replacement strap and a personal note. The Duckworth Prestex Broadgate GMT Automatic is available in five color options with rubber or metal bracelet choices, and is priced around $995. One owner finds the three different numeral fonts on the dial disorienting but appreciates the orange color as a great summer choice. On balance, owners value the brand's customer service and the watch's summer-ready aesthetic.

Marloe Watch Company GMT

Owners widely praise the Marloe Watch Company GMT for its craftsmanship, dial details, and true GMT functionality powered by the Miyota 9075 movement. The watch is considered a good value, with owners highlighting its build quality and comfortable wearability, especially on smaller wrists, at price points around $750 or $499. Some owners desire a slightly smaller case size, more prominent lume, and higher water resistance than the stated 50m. The bezel action is noted as not being overly loose. Overall, owners rate the Marloe Watch Company GMT highly for its traveler GMT function and build quality at the price.

From video reviewers

The Marloe Watch Company GMT has a strong point in its finishing, which is very impressive. A notable trade-off is the lack of lume brightness, which is a drawback for this watch. Reviewers disagree on the bezel action, with one reviewer finding it stiff and another not mentioning it.
