The bezel is interchangable. The black one that I have on has lume whilst the stainless steel one is just plain black paint for the hour numbers. You see better pictures @ steinhartwatches

Case is titanium with stainless steel caseback and bezel. It still feels heavy. Comes with 2 straps. Will post more pics when I have the time.

Guys,

Noticing something strange about this watch (ETA 2893-2 movement). I experienced this a few times...the GMT hand seems to turn/move backwards between 2 to 5 hours when the normal time is between 11:30am to 12:00pm.

For example, I set the GMT hand to match local time but pointing on the bezel 24hr. Therefore, when local time = 11:00AM, GMT = 11:00 .... local=8:00PM, GMT=20:00, so on...
Today, in between 11:30am to 12:00pm local time, the GMT hand starting moving backwards from until it reached around 06:00. Is this normal? or am I missing something here.

I tried to explain this to Steinhart and he kept saying it is normal and that I should ask a local watchmaker to explain how it works. Any ideas?
