The GMTeiko Rootbeer brings a timeless two-tone look to modern mechanical reliability. Inspired by vintage GMT styles, this custom watch features a warm, elegant blend of stainless steel and bronze-tone accents that give it that iconic Rootbeer aesthetic.

At its core is the dependable NH35A automatic movement, known for its smooth operation, 24-jewel construction, and hacking functionality. The case measures a balanced 40mm in diameter with a bold 14.3mm thickness, making it substantial without being overbearing. Lumed dial markers and Mercedes-style hands ensure legibility in any light, while a screw-down crown and internal seals provide water resistance up to 3 ATM.

Whether you're styling it up or keeping things casual, the Rootbeer offers heritage looks with high-performance internals—built for those who value precision, character, and confidence.

A quality Seiko

Delivered earlier than expected (2 Days - Melb to Syd). Exactly as in the pictures and is a great watch. Solid and extremely well packaged and presented. A quality Seiko and I love the root beer colour combo mod homage to the Submariner. Highly recommend to buy from this shop.
