Jack Mason makes some great, affordable timepieces. Now, they’re going upmarket with a true GMT watch for all you time-zone jumpers. The new Strat-o-timer GMT gets its very own mechanical automatic Miyota Caliber 9075 movement with jump hour functionality nad 42 hours of power reserve. The 316L stainless steel case is a modestly sized 40mm, and the 20mm stainless steel jubilee bracelet tapers elegantly to the clasp at 16mm. The classic dial has clean and brightly-lumed hands and markers. The bi-directional bezel and GMT hand even get seven layers of Swiss Super-LumiNova in green for excellent visibility. The Strat-o-timer also has a double-domed sapphire boxed sapphire crystal, a screw-down crown, and 200 meters of water resistance. It comes in three colorways: navy with a Pepsi bezel, black with a root beer bezel, and white with an orange/black bezel. Pre-orders are being taken now for delivery next spring.
