I couldn't remember who wrote that song, but suffice to say my blue face Monday is the Origin Classic GMT partner to my Pepsi from yesterday. I just really like the look, feel and size (41) of these pieces. No adjustment needed in the bracelet. The white indices standing out on the navy face. The clear 24-hour numerals on the bezel. The classic caseback. I've budgeted for at least one new release in 2026 to acquire and one in 2027 before locking down this collection. Tip o the hat for hook-introducing me to this brand- @Chad Smith and @Brett Sutton . Specs The Erebus Origin GMT is an evolution of the highly successful Erebus Origin 41. The two watches may share DNA but the Origin GMT brings a raft of material improvements, and the extra capability provided by a GMT complication. The choice of Seiko's NH34 automatic calibre ensures the watch will perform reliably for years, if not decades, and the Origin GMT still sports dimensions that will wear beautifully on a wide range of wrist sizes. New bracelet and bezel options make the Origin GMT look and feel like a more upscale offering, yet Erebus' relentless focus on value ensures the price remains as affordable as ever. And with the cornerstones of all 316L stainless steel construction, 200m of water resistance, sapphire crystal, and incredible legibility, the Origin GMT remains a tool watch to its core. The Classic range boasts four model choices, all with applied two-piece logos, framed date windows and comfort enhancements to the custom spec Curved H-Link bracelet.They feature an all-brushed case and bracelet, top grade BGW9 Super-LumiNova, and ceramic or steel 24 click bidirectional bezels, allowing you to quickly and easily track a second time zone. The Premium range goes even further with another four models featuring a new, all-brushed 'J-Style' bracelet designed for ultimate comfort and style. The standout feature of the range though, are the custom made, fully lumed, sandblasted bicolour ceramic bezel inserts. These are something normally found on watches costing thousands of dollars, and not hundreds of dollars.

I always enjoy wearing the Spinnaker Croft, it always envokes a feeling of nostalgia. After wearing the steinhart over the weekend I took a look at this watch for comparison and realised just how good the case and bracelet finishing are on this watch. Spinnaker is definitely worth a look.
