Project GMT: Name discussion

[OmegaCosmicMan]

I’m not sure if I would like three of my watches to be named after a town. The Kingston was a great idea for a name for the 6538 hommage, but to me it would be a bit repetitive to use a name like that in all the watches using Kingston case. I think we can be more imaginative Here are some alternatives (some of them are not even good :), but they might give some ideas for developing). GlobeTrotter (not a pretty name and reminds me of basket ball) TimeLord Time Rider Cosmopolite Continentor

You're Right!

(some of them are not even good :),

If we end traveling this route... What about.... 'Time Traveler' ?

I'm with cpotters on this one, the watch could be called SOS and I'd be still grateful enough for the combination of classic style and functional perfection to want to own it.
Open to ideas....Gentleman, have a great day!

Haha.....
I personally would like to see the name somehow relate back to Pan Am, if only because that was the original concept for this MkII homage (the "Pan Am GMT" is how this project started) and that the original Rolex GMTs were designed with the cooperation of Pan Am to coincide with the deliveries of their first Boeing 707s (and pilots needing to keep track of the time in multiple time zones for the first time).

This...

Meridian so far seems to fit
maybe add a GMT or MKII to it.

I really like the name "Key West." Sounds nice, sort of has the same regional feel as Kingston and Nassau.

Id like to see the word GMT on the dial.

So maybe Key West GMT?

'Clipper Pilot GMT' - adding pilot removes mistaking it for a nail clipper. Pilot, because it was issued to pilots.

I would like to see the GMT name go in one of two directions. If we wish to acknowledge its PanAm heritage ( without copyright infringement ) then :

- PanAmerican

If we wish to align to the convention set with the Kingston and Nassau then :

- Key West

I would be happy with either of the above.

:-D

I'm kinda' partial to the name Hemisphere Dancer. I'm sure Jimmy Buffett wouldn't mind Bill using the name for a watch if he gets one for himself.

Definitely GMT should be part of the name
GMT Meridian
KEY WEST GMT

Lots of great suggestions.. got me thinking... harking back to the days of sail two class of ships fired my imagination years back.. The Wind Jammer and or The Bluenose. The more breeze there was the more sail they lofted and the quicker they made port. Speed, GMT, navigation, safety all at play under those great sails. Then there was the racing...
