A diver's GMT for a pilot's budget
By Rafael Ortiz, Mexico City ยท
Dive case, GMT hand, 24-hour rotating bezel, 39 mm wide and 12.6 mm thick. On paper Squale built a budget GMT-Master. In the metal it's its own thing, a little more Italian and a lot cheaper, and I like it.
The Sellita SW330 is a caller, so you set the GMT hand on its own instead of jumping the local hour. On a long-haul trip that means one extra step. Not a dealbreaker. The 56 hour reserve is good, and 200 meters is plenty.
At 1,200 to 1,300 dollars, the bracelet and case feel more expensive than the price. The dial is legible. The lume is good, not great. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a GMT look without Rolex prices.
