Greetings to everybody from Istanbul.

I had a possibility to spent couple of days with this masterpiece and I wanted to share the review with you. All of the photos are live and taken by our team.

I hope you will like it.

Insane.

Only thing I don't like about GF is the 43+ mm size on something that go under the category of dress watches...

Psmith · 14 August 2015, 06:47 PM

Amazing. Don't think I'd try servicing it myself...!

Israguard · 14 August 2015, 09:04 PM

Love it or hate it... That really is a cool and funky looking watch.

Anyone know what they go for?

The least expensive GF starts at around $350K-$400K. The GMT should be closer to $600K depending on the metal.

I found the world time on the reverse side of the dial to be fascinating as it separates cities that adjust time for daylight savings vs those that don't. The rotating globe is a cool feature too.

Great photos and thanks for the review!

Nice for the museum, couldn't see it being worn?

jjnd08 · 14 August 2015, 10:35 PM

Thanks for posting!

That watch is just insane!

eddsi · 14 August 2015, 10:40 PM

Very unique.

T. Ferguson · 14 August 2015, 11:06 PM

Interesting piece but it looks like someone accidentally left in on a hot stove.

GB-man · 14 August 2015, 11:26 PM

Thanks for the pics and review. Seeing this watch in person you can really appreciate the depth and finishing. That said, I do agree it is an odd design language. Still if I played in this arena, I would almost certainly consider one just to watch the awesome globe

kabzi · 15 August 2015, 03:40 AM

Thanks to you all fellas.

It was really a big pleasure and fun to examine this watch in person.

Perfect workmanship and very charming.

AK797 · 15 August 2015, 05:34 AM

Wow, those boys have come along way!

Colin W · 15 August 2015, 07:10 AM

Simply amazing - my favourite GMT. These piece really are 3D👍

That is the most insane and badest watch i have ever seen !

lapince · 15 August 2015, 12:39 PM

very cool watch

conkers · 15 August 2015, 05:44 PM

I love this brand, amazing workmanship - I am doing a lot of research before taking the plunge though.

I am not sure I like this piece though although there is no doubting the interesting functionality - I think the case shape is the problem for me, I prefer this one:

tom2517 · 16 August 2015, 04:17 AM

Workmanship is the best, above commercial brand like Patek and AP.

This one is also very nice like almost all the other models in GF collection. But I would highly advise you to try the GMT on your wrist before you decide.

That asymetry on the case looks really different and attractive. Also the globe functions is unique and eyecatcher.

dysondiver · 16 August 2015, 04:53 AM

thas a lot of watch , in every sense ,, like the simpler case design above more though ,,
the globe function is a real show stealer.

Marciano490 · 16 August 2015, 06:36 AM

Guys, guys. Can we stick with Mille for a couple more years before switching to GF?

At the $300-$500k price point for GF, I'd be happy to stick with the 'less expensive' RM

Honestly I think GF is getting some buzz now (in high $ circles--lot of VC guys in CA are into them), but don't think secondary will be great. We'll have to wait and see.

Again, not being into dress watches, no matter the price it's not on my radar

regnant · 16 August 2015, 06:20 PM

Thanks for the review and photos. The watch is fantastic but as you could expect price is insane

Beautiful, amazing watch! Definitely my grail watch, thanks for the review and great pics!

topcat30093 · 23 September 2015, 04:26 AM

I admire their watches and the complications that they are able to build into the watches.

Some are more practical than others.

And for that reason, I'm with Roger, for the piece that he has included :)

Though, the price maybe a bit of a damper for me :)))))))

conkers · 23 September 2015, 09:55 AM

Can be had with 50% off if you do your homework, so that helps, but still expensive pieces!!

That's better than what I was able to find out, I was quoted 35% off, not that I am buying one anytime soon.....
