However, perhaps the biggest problem with travelling is jet lag and time disorientation. Especially if you\u2019re travelling apart from your loved ones, time zones can become very confusing very quickly. This is where a GMT watch can help tremendously. In fact, the difficulties of travelling from one time zone to another were precisely why the GMT function was invented. But what is a GMT complication, and where can you find it? Read on for a short history of the function and the best GMT watches available today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>What is a GMT complication?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A GMT complication gives you the ability to track a second timezone on your watch in conjunction to your main timezone. Often, this is through a fourth hand or a subdial. This means that you can track your home time whilst abroad, or a foreign timezone whilst at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>How did the GMT complication come about?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As expected, GMT stands for Greenwich Mean Time. For the British, you\u2019ll know GMT as the time zone we adopt in the winter months. However, globally, GMT is much more important. Recorded by the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London, GMT was declared the global \u201cmean time\u201d back in 1884. As such, GMT became the central time zone against which all other time zones are compared. The introduction of Universal Time Coordinated (UTC) in the 1960s only made its role more significant, with Greenwich becoming the UTC zero point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So why is the GMT complication named after Greenwich Mean Time? The short answer is the name just stuck. The introduction of the GMT watch coincided with the Jet Age, as commercial flights began to transport people across the world. Of course, accompanying this was the increasing problem of jet lag and having to adjust your watch constantly to different time zones. This led to the development of one of the first popular GMT models. Made by British-founded brand, Rolex, the watch was named the GMT-Master. Released in the early 1950s, the watch featured an additional hand which indicated a second time zone on the dual-tone bezel. Following its release, other brands followed suit and adopted the same name for the function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Our recommendations: Best GMT Watches<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that we know a little bit more about the GMT complication, without further ado, let&#8217;s introduce some of today\u2019s best GMT watches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product114498-3849_cropped.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product114498-3849_cropped-719x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Best GMT Watches\" class=\"wp-image-52649\" width=\"199\" height=\"284\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product114498-3849_cropped-719x1024.jpg 719w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product114498-3849_cropped-211x300.jpg 211w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product114498-3849_cropped-510x727.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product114498-3849_cropped-360x513.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product114498-3849_cropped-300x428.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product114498-3849_cropped-120x171.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product114498-3849_cropped.jpg 748w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/seiko-prospex-glacier-blue-automatic-traveller-gmt-stainless-steel-bracelet-limited-edition-spb385j1-p-114498\/\">Seiko Prospex \u2018Glacier Blue\u2019 Automatic Traveller GMT Stainless Steel Bracelet Limited Edition<\/a> SPB385J1<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.seikowatches.com\/\">Seiko<\/a> has mastered the GMT complication in many of its watch designs. However, the Prospex GMT is the brand\u2019s newest model. Although it&#8217;s currently only available to preorder, it&#8217;s a worthwhile mention on our list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seiko\u2019s Prospex range takes its name from the words \u2018professional\u2019 and \u2018specifications\u2019. Although its newest GMT model is only available to pre-order, it&#8217;s a worthwhile addition to our list. This particular Prospex GMT model is limited edition and follows a glacier blue colour scheme, but it will also be available in a black (SPB383J1) and a green (SPB381J1) colourway. It\u2019s based on the brand\u2019s popular 1968 Diver model, which paved the way for Seiko\u2019s success with its extensive diver watch portfolio. With an icy blue dial and a contrasting slate-grey bezel, this Seiko Prospex is certainly the most visually appealing on our list. The glacier-like texture on the dial echoes the inspiration for the model, Antarctica, which is tied significantly to the brand\u2019s diver\u2019s watch heritage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, it also boasts excellent functionality and mechanical power. All indices on the model are luminescent to accommodate low-light conditions, as are the hour, minute, second and GMT hands. Beating beneath the sapphire crystal enclosed dial is Seiko\u2019s mighty in-house 6R54 calibre automatic mechanical movement. Built for any avid explorer, the movement has a three-day power reserve and water resistance of up to 200 metres. Its stunning appearance and high competency make this Seiko the perfect contender to open our best GMT watches list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product89320-3432_cropped.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product89320-3432_cropped-570x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-52652\" width=\"193\" height=\"346\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product89320-3432_cropped-570x1024.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product89320-3432_cropped-167x300.jpg 167w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product89320-3432_cropped-768x1380.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product89320-3432_cropped-855x1536.jpg 855w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product89320-3432_cropped-930x1671.jpg 930w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product89320-3432_cropped-750x1348.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product89320-3432_cropped-510x916.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product89320-3432_cropped-360x647.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product89320-3432_cropped-300x539.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product89320-3432_cropped-120x216.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product89320-3432_cropped.jpg 1044w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 193px) 100vw, 193px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/longines-spirit-zulu-time-gmt-42mm-black-dial-stainless-steel-bracelet-l38124536-p-89320\/\">LONGINES SPIRIT ZULU TIME GMT 42mm Black Dial Stainless Steel Bracelet<\/a> L38124536 L3.812.4.53.6<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Fusing the typical <a href=\"https:\/\/www.longines.com\/en-gb\">Longines<\/a> attention to detail and outstanding craftsmanship is the Spirit Zulu Time GMT. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For ease of reading, the black dial features large Arabic numeral indices which are also luminescent. At the 6 o\u2019clock position, a rectangular date aperture replaces the hour marker. Standing out against the silver hour, minute and second hands is the blue-tipped arrow GMT hand. This indicates a second time zone through the hour markers on the black bezel, using minute markers on the outer track of the dial for extra precision. Attesting to the watch\u2019s high accuracy is its COSC-certified chronometer automatic movement, which is equipped with a 72-hour power reserve. The movement is housed in a 42mm wide stainless steel case which adjoins the dial\u2019s anti-reflective sapphire crystal. Completing the high-end look of the Zulu Time GMT is an elegant stainless steel bracelet. Classic, confident and highly capable, this Longines Spirit is an excellent luxury choice for a GMT watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product64732-4455_cropped.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product64732-4455_cropped-576x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Best GMT Watches\" class=\"wp-image-52655\" width=\"191\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product64732-4455_cropped-576x1024.jpg 576w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product64732-4455_cropped-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product64732-4455_cropped-510x906.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product64732-4455_cropped-360x640.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product64732-4455_cropped-300x533.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product64732-4455_cropped-120x213.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product64732-4455_cropped.jpg 689w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 191px) 100vw, 191px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/hamilton-khaki-aviation-converter-auto-gmt-brown-leather-strap-h76715540-p-64732\/\">Hamilton Khaki Aviation Converter Auto GMT Brown Leather Strap<\/a> H76715540<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hamiltonwatch.com\/en-gb\/\">Hamilton<\/a> has already built a reputation for itself in the aviation division of the watch industry, and its Converter model is no exception. The brown leather strap and colour scheme of this model bring more of a casual feel to the GMT watch. Moreover, with its bright blue multipurpose dial, you cannot fault the model&#8217;s attention to detail. Featuring mixed white indices, the dial also has contrasting red accents to improve its legibility. This is echoed on the second and GMT hands, which both have a red tip. These are easily distinguished from one another by their shape, with the GMT\u2019s arrow tip pointing towards indices on the dial\u2019s outer ring. Bringing together the design is a stainless steel case, which is 44mm in diameter. Other functional details include a date display at 6 o\u2019clock, an H-14 calibre automatic movement, and an 80-hour power reserve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, one of the model\u2019s stand-out features is its bidirectional conversion bezel. Allowing the wearer to convert units and currency, the watch will support you in your travels beyond time disorientation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product106965-1765_cropped.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product106965-1765_cropped.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-52658\" width=\"193\" height=\"334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product106965-1765_cropped.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product106965-1765_cropped-173x300.jpg 173w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product106965-1765_cropped-510x882.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product106965-1765_cropped-360x623.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product106965-1765_cropped-300x519.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product106965-1765_cropped-120x208.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 193px) 100vw, 193px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/sternglas-taiga-gmt-vintage-42mm-quartz-s01-ta11-na04-p-106965\/\">STERNGLAS Taiga GMT \/ Vintage 42mm Quartz<\/a> S01-TA11-NA04<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>For a more affordable option that doesn\u2019t sacrifice quality, this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sternglas.com\/\">Sternglas<\/a> Taiga GMT is an excellent competitor. One of the brand\u2019s earlier models, the Taiga possesses many luxurious features you would find on more mainstream brand\u2019s high-end watches. For instance, protecting the dial is a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. Additionally, its robust build means that it is also water resistant up to 100 metres. Sitting in the 42mm wide stainless steel case is an anthracite grey dial with white alternating indices. Its three central hands are silver to complement the design. To bring a pop of colour to the watch face, the GMT hand is yellow and designed to stand out. Moreover, the extra 24-hour indices on the inner ring of the bezel facilitate the reading of the second time zone. For an added military touch, a two-tone beige and black NATO-style strap completes the design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Effortlessly combining multifunctionality with a simplistic design, the Sternglas Taiga would make an excellent choice for those who prefer a no-frills design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product68434-5881_cropped.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product68434-5881_cropped-622x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Best GMT Watches\" class=\"wp-image-52661\" width=\"185\" height=\"305\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product68434-5881_cropped-622x1024.jpg 622w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product68434-5881_cropped-182x300.jpg 182w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product68434-5881_cropped-510x840.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product68434-5881_cropped-360x593.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product68434-5881_cropped-300x494.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product68434-5881_cropped-120x198.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/product68434-5881_cropped.jpg 726w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 185px) 100vw, 185px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/maurice-lacroix-aikon-venturer-gmt-stainless-steel-bracelet-black-dial-ai6158-ss002-330-1-p-68434\/\">Maurice Lacroix Aikon Venturer GMT Stainless Steel Bracelet Black Dial<\/a> AI6158-SS002-330-1<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The final contender on our best GMT watch list is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mauricelacroix.com\/eu_en\/\">Maurice Lacroix<\/a> Aikon Venturer GMT. Refreshing the classic silver and black colour scheme, the dual-tone bezel alternates colour with each hour marker. This eye-catching bezel makes the perfect frame for the black sunburst dial adorned with mixed luminescent indices. Its red GMT hand stands out against the other three silver hands and indicates a second time zone through the 24-hour markers on the bezel. Measuring 43mm in width, this design sits in a stainless steel case which ensures water resistance up to 300 metres. Powering the watch is the brand\u2019s own ML165 calibre movement that&#8217;s automatic and Swiss Made. For a quirky but incredibly reliable model, we highly recommend this Maurice Lacroix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That rounds up our Best GMT Watches list for today.
