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 talk.

“

The Makina MEPHISTO_III GMT (Blue) is lauded for its 38mm wearability and integrated bracelet design, with reviewers highlighting its impressive build quality and sensible $850 price point. The multi-layered blue dial, described as reminiscent of turbine blades, is noted as a distinctive feature. Some reviewers consider the lack of a date function a missed opportunity for a travel watch, and the faceted blue dial is described as an acquired taste. Overall, reviewers rate the Makina MEPHISTO_III GMT (Blue) highly for its integrated bracelet design and wearability at its price.
