LIMES has a lovely new GMT diver – the Endurance GMT which boasts one of ICKLER’s (LIMES parent brand) famous diver's cases in brushed Stainless steel.
This is water-resistant to 300 meters and houses an ETA 2893-2 Elaborè grade automatic movement with an independent GMT hand and date.
The case measures a modest 41.5mm diameter (46mm with crown) with a lug-to-lug length of 50mm and thickness 12.5mm.
The case is equipped with a Sapphire crystal with AR, a black uni-rotational bezel with 60min dive-time scale and lumed 12H marker, a solid screw-down case back crown and screw-bars.
The dial which can be had in either matte black or blue is with large luminous indices, date at 6, 2 dual time-zone reading. The hand and markers are Luminous material.
The variants shown here are with 20mm Stainless steel multi-link bracelets with safety clasp and fold-out diver’s extension. MSRP is €1,580.00 incl. EU VAT plus shipping.
Thoughts? This is a sober no-nonsense GMT diver from one of Germany’s most established sports watchmakers, a family owned business dating back just a few years shy of a century!
The hands alone illustrate how seriously LIMES take their diver’s watches – check out the width of them; I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a large lumed area on a seconds pointer, before!
