Congrats! How is the thickness? Not too bad?
It's a little thicker than what I'm used to but you get used to it. I do think the next iteration should be thinner though. But it fits my wrist well and I really like the way it looks: both sporty and dressy.

Sadly I doubt the next iteration will he thinner. It would require a rearchitecture and Tudor had this feedback from the last gmt and did nothing. But it is a good looking watch, so enjoy!

I posted pix of this in 2017 but they're gone now, as is most of my Soviet watch collection. Over the past 2-3 years I gave over 50 watches away to extended family, friends, people I thought were my friends and a few to people I only knew casually but knew would appreciate them.

I like to wear this the first day it snows in Winter. It's a limited edition Molnija (Lightning) pocket watch, from the 25th Annual Biathlon World Championships (ski and shoot) held in 1990 in Minsk, Belarus, which at the time was still part of the Soviet Union. The text on the front signifies the UIPMB, or Union Internationale de Pentathlon Moderne et Biathlon, the governing body of the event in 1990. The text on the back reads World Championship - Minsk - 1990:

You don't see a lot of pocket watches these days. I like these a lot. Are these from the Winter Olympics?
