This is Marc and Sons take on the iconic "Batman" GMT. Available in many other colors, this GMT uses the ETA 2893 Elabore Movement, has a ceramic bezel that is fully lumed, sapphire crystal and a jubilee style bracelet. It also has something unique for this style of watch, a sandwich dial. Is this the budget batman GMT for you, or would you prefer something from one of the other brands doing this style of watch? Let us know in the comments!

The movement

This GMT watch is powered by an automatic movement from the Swiss company ETA. The movement ETA 2893-2 has a second time zone with an additional 24 hour hand. It is known for its reliability and is very popular mainly with pilots. Before assembly, the movement is subjected to a fine adjustment by our watchmakers.
