Fantastic small run design combining a German made Fricker case with the famous Swiss made ETA 2893-2 GMT movement. This watch is number 14 in a run of what is believed to be only 25. I am the first and only owner of this watch. It has spent most of its life on the watch winder -- it's just a little too large for me. The watch is in as-new condition and includes an extra Hirsch Extreme rubber strap ($149 value).The watch comes with box, papers and all original accessories plus the extra Hirsch strap.Here is the original description and specs from the Korsbek website:
The Recon GMT combines a German made case with a Swiss movement. A rugged instrument designed to tell the time in multiple places. Our goal was to design and engineer a tool watch that met and exceeded all the requirements for world travelers and explorers. Crafted from surgical-grade stainless steel, the German made case of this solid wrist instrument is rated water resistant to a depth of 500 meters, and houses a thick inner case made of soft iron, which shields the automatic movement against the effects of magnetism. Inside of the Recon GMT beats a 21-jewel shockproof ETA 2893-2 automatic movement. The Recon GMT ships in a green Pelican case, with a warranty card, and polishing cloth.
