Michel GMT - Ivory Meridian
Michel GMT - Ivory Meridian
Silver White - The Racing Heritage
A study in restraint. The Ivory Meridian pairs a soft white dial with a warm yellow gold case, grounded by a deep black leather strap. The contrast is deliberate—light and shadow, clarity and depth—echoing the quiet precision of long-haul navigation.
Inspired by the golden age of jet travel, this configuration leans into elegance without excess. The dial remains crisp and legible, while the gold case introduces a sense of permanence and refinement.
A GMT designed not for the cockpit, but for the cabin—where time slows, and every detail matters.

Read MoreThe case finishing is exceptional for the price point. The brushed surfaces feel premium and give it a modern, almost integrated-bracelet aesthetic when paired with straight-end straps.

The Michel fits as a great daily wearer that is different to look at and can be worn casually and with more dress attire. I found myself looking at my wrist as much as the road on the drive home. The other thing that shocked me are the specs of the watch for the price. You are making fantastic watches and I wish you great success.

The Michel GMT I bought from you last year in Toronto is by far my most worn watch out of my small collection.
