Greubel Forsey Balancier GMT Convexe
This is a hands-on review of the Greubel Forsey Balancier GMT Convexe, focusing on its new bright blue colorway released on September 3, 2026. The review highlights the watch's intricate 3D dial, convex case design, and practical GMT function, noting its comfortable wearability despite its thickness.
The new Balancier GMT Convexe features a bright blue colorway, with the titanium plate and the globe depiction on the dial matching the blue of the oceans.
The crown now includes rubber inserts that match the watch's color pop, and it comes with a matching rubber strap.
The watch exhibits a depth and layering on the dial, described as a 'Watchscape', which is a signature of Greubel Forsey.
The convex case, first seen in 2019, is noted for its curvature that allows it to sit well on the wrist.
The case back displays a cities disc with summer time indications, useful for travelers observing daylight savings.
The titanium case contributes to the watch feeling very light, though the case is described as rather thick and potentially bulky.
All Greubel Forsey watches are finished to the same high level, including this model, though exclusive hand-made series use components requiring more hand work.
