Miyota

Miyota's GMT complication caliber built on the 90-series platform, featuring an independently adjustable 24-hour hand for tracking a second time zone. At 28 jewels it has the highest jewel count in the Miyota automatic lineup. The 5.67mm height accommodates the additional GMT wheel train, and the true GMT function with jumping local hour hand makes it a compelling alternative to Swiss GMT movements at a fraction of the cost.

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Bulova Oceanographer GMT for its exceptional value and wearability, with many noting its comfortable 41mm case that wears smaller than its dimensions suggest and its ability to draw compliments. Specific highlights include the fully lumed dial and bezel, the 3D cylindrical markers, and the proper flyer GMT movement. Accuracy is generally good, with one owner reporting -4 seconds per day. Some owners find the GMT hand's style too similar to the seconds hand or note that the white-on-white lume can be difficult to read. The rubber strap's carbon-style imprint is also mentioned as less appealing than bracelets. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Bulova Oceanographer GMT highly for its impressive value and well-executed vintage-inspired design.
