First Impression: Bvlgari Diagno GMT
Bvlgari recently unveiled the Diagno GMT, at Baselworld 2009. The key feature of the new Diagno GMT is a hack mechanism that makes it very easy to change between different time zones. For most dual time watches, you need to set the second time zone via the crown. For this one, instead of a crown, it uses pushers at 2 and 4 o'clock to advance or reverse the second time zone hour hand. The date automatically changes when the second time zone hour-hand is moved forward or backwards. If the watch is left still for too long, a pusher at 8 o'clock can independently adjust the date.
