What is a GMT watch and how do they work?

Rolex GMT-Master II.

If you're looking to upgrade from a watch that simply tells the time to something more complex, a GMT is a great option. These watches usually look quite simple, but can be used to tell two or even three different time zones at once, making them perfect for frequent travelers.

They’re a great option for anyone who works across multiple time zones, or who has family living abroad. There are a huge number of GMT watches available to buy, and while the most notable GMTs are from the likes of Rolex, Omega and Tudor, there are options to suit almost every budget.
