Hello friends!

On the market for a budget GMT to use as a "beater" travel companion for everyday wear while abroad. Based on taste and budget, I've narrowed it down to the Seiko SK023 or the Traska Venturer GMT. The specs, aesthetics (Seiko is too busy), durability, and even lume speak for the Traska (I have an especially hard time justifying a hardlex crystal as a "beater"), but the Traska is 3x more $$$, given that the Seiko is widely available at a heavy discount...
