The design of the 1970 GMT Automatic
As a fan of especially vintage watches and the way they patinate with time, I went for earthy tones for the turning bezels.
Think of the faded laquer of a Karman Ghia that sat in the sun for too long in Southern California. Or a two-tone VW Camper Van that crossed numerous borders for decades and never got a new paintjob.
As a frequent flyer and hence traveling in different timezones, a watch with a GMT was the way to go when designing a timepiece for About Vintage.
Using an automatic Swiss movement was not a desire. It was a demand. The only way to go.
A NATO strap that matches the colour of the dial and/or the 24-hour GMT bezel is the way to wear this watch. However the mesh bracelet also looks amazing, reminding us of yesteryears traveling trends and exotic destinations pre-social media.
