I’m looking at both the Bulova Oceanographer GMT, Pepsi Dial, and the Citizen Series 8 GMT, also the Pepsi variation. The Bulova, more of the “dive” watch based on the history of the Oceanographer series, uses the Miyota 9075 movement, the Citizen uses a in-house GMT movement (my guess, a variation of the 9075?). Both are true GMT’s and have characteristics that I like. I do own a Limited Edition Orange Oceanographer, 296 of 666 made … so leaning toward Bulova. Anyone have experience with either? Thoughts?

    The Series8 uses the 9054 movement, which is a modestly-upgraded version of the 9075 for use exclusively by Citizen.

    Hey OP, I dunno the price difference between these, but this color way looks more juvenile in the Bulova to me. 42 power reserve on a Traveler GMT is painful.

    I bought my Bulova from Relojesmoda for a steal with cheap international shipping. I would highly recommend them if you’re going with the Bulova
