Am I the only one that thinks those Alpinists looks funny because the numerals don’t match the hands?

No, that's one of the first things I noticed too. I don't think it looks terrible and it certainly doesn't ruin the watch for me but I think it's an odd choice. Hoping to see some more real life pics. That's one of the reasons I didn't purchase the Yema Superman Bronze which I kind of regret now. It turned out that the renders and pre-production models showed hands and indices of different colors but those colors all matched on the watches that actually shipped to buyers.

The Orient Singapore Instagram account probably has the best glamour shots of this. There are more there too. They look good but $$$. I'm interested to see what kind of prices these sell for in a year or two, especially grey market.

Well, the movement seems to be on a better side, 50 hours PR, and tighter accuracy. Currently on eBay for about $1.5K. My guess will be about $500 in a year or so.

That Orient would look so much sharper without the open heart.

The new Farer GMTs are out! https://farer.com/collections/gmt-bezel

Copied from their site:

40.5mm diameter, 10mm depth (11.75mm including domed crystal), 44mm-lug-to lug, 42mm pin-to-pin

20mm lugs

20ATM

SELLITA SW330-1 Top Grade movement with bespoke rotor featuring Farer A emblem in skeleton. Glucydur balance wheel, Nivaflex spring, Incabloc anti-shock mechanism

Upon announcement of the Farer GMT models, folks expressed concerns about the legibility of the white-dial model as it had silver hands. Farer reportedly took that into consideration and made a design change at the last minute. Now, the hands are black, as suggested by some of their potential customers:

It looks good. I am very happy with their World Timer so I cannot justify getting this, but my gosh, it's so tempting.

Yeeeeesh! That's what the MSRP is? I didn't do the currency exchange. That's outrageous. MSRP should be more like $400 with a street price around mid $200. Ouch.

Nice! LE, but needs hacking. [emoji6]

They've gone Swiss pricing with Seiko.

Chinese are going to be the next affordable non swiss.
