GMT globetrotter watch and especially NYT (New York time)!

SICURA Globetrotter 21 rubies with manual winding. This is a very unusual watch from the 70s thanks to its triple hour hand and its colored bezel. Indeed, beyond the classic hand, there is also a GMT hand and especially an improbable NYT (New York Time) hand. They work together when setting the time. The 41mm case has a very beautiful black dial with tritium dots and numbers as well as a date window at 3 o'clock. The bi-directional yellow and blue aluminum bezel allows you to know the time of the 24 cities listed in the flange. The case back uses the brand's traditional cabinets. The movement often remains Sicura's negative point since their goal was to offer Swiss watches at a lower cost. My copy has a modest EB 8027 caliber (Ebauches Bettlach). Note that there are also automatic versions. At an auction, its originality, its colored bezel and its magnificent hands seduced me.
