| O.K. everyone, here's another nice looking GMT. This one is Butler's Professional Series GMT, and some of the specifications include a 40 mm brushed, or DLC matte blacked coated stainless steel case, decorated screw down case-back, an AR coated domed sapphire crystal, metal dial, and chapter ring with hands, and markers done in SuperLuminova, 100 meter WR, Swiss Ronda Powertech caliber 515.24h quartz movement, and leather strap made in the USA. The Pro J80 is another nice watch, and is a chronograph named after the Jet Route 80 which goes from California to Maine. The watch's name pays tribute to all the pilot's over the years who've flown using VOR to VOR navigation. Where aircraft use received short-wave radio signals to navigate, and stay on course while flying. It has the same dimensions as the GMT, as well as finishes, and specifications, but uses Ronda's 5021.D quartz everybody. Some pictures for you guys... Butler Watch, and Wrist Watch Review with more everyone... [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]____________________________________

| At nearly $500 this is a bit of a turn off.....a GMT Swiss Ronda should be in the $200-$300 range at most. Even for USA made etc. We all have to play on the world stage and I just don't see $450-500 of value here. I hope they do well. ____________________________________ Later, GaryRemember we are the caretakers of mechanical art..... Member NAWCC, National Association of Watch & Clock Collectors | |

Yup, you're right Gary, that does sound high. ..Actually didn't even know what the cost of a Ronda GMT movement was supposed to be. So thanks once again there ! I hope they do well also, and that the prices come down for these. ..I mean that way they'll even sell more watches right?! ____________________________________ | |

| Hi,
A note in our defense:
The Butler Professional Series GMT is a great watch. If you want all of your watches to be $200, then you will not get a good watch with quality components.
Thanks for looking. | |
