Atlantic Automatic GMT Watch 8468-5

The Watch

Zeppelin crafts precise and beautifully designed timepieces for both men and women. Choosing a Zeppelin watch means embracing a piece that tells a story - each model captures the spirit of travel and adventure while staying true to a rigorous watchmaking tradition. Whether for everyday wear or a special occasion, Zeppelin watches embody a refined lifestyle where heritage meets modernity. From the Atlantic collection comes this stunning GMT watch. It features a round case crafted in silver-toned stainless steel with a polished finish that enhances its brilliance. The case is topped by a K1 mineral crystal to protect the dial. The case measures 42 mm in diameter and 14 mm in thickness. The crown at 3 o'clock provides smooth access to hand and date window adjustment. This model features a screwed and transparent caseback offering 5 ATM water resistance while revealing the movement within.

The Dial

The dial of this GMT model is round and features a beige background. It stands out with a world map at its center and luminescent material that makes it glow in the dark. The dial's perimeter is lined by twelve silver-toned indices marking the hours, followed by Arabic numerals representing GMT hours, which are tracked by the small hand tipped with a green arrow. These time indicators are swept over by the two central hands showing hours and minutes. The seconds hand displays the seconds, while the date window at 3 o'clock shows the date. Finally, the brand's name is printed below the 12 o'clock index and the collection name appears near 6 o'clock.

The Movement

The automatic movement powering this timepiece is of Japanese origin. Specifically, it is the Miyota 9075 caliber, fitted with 24 jewels, that drives all functions with precision. This mechanism features a stop-seconds device and delivers a power reserve of 42 hours. Its oscillation frequency is 28,800 vibrations per hour.

The Strap

This watch comes paired with an attractive brown strap crafted from bovine leather and finished with tone-on-tone stitching. The brand's name and logo are embossed on the strap. Measuring 22 mm in width and 216 mm in length, the strap fastens easily with a pin buckle in stainless steel.

Water Resistance

With 50-meter water resistance - or 5 ATM in watchmaking terms - this timepiece can handle the occasional splash, but shouldn't be exposed to water for extended periods. You can get away with wearing it in the shower now and then, but to preserve the quality and precision of the movement, every watch specialist strongly recommends keeping it away from baths, pools, and the sea. Bottom line: no swimming, no diving, and no prolonged contact or immersion in water.
