Miyota 9075 Traveler GMT Movement: A Japanese Marvel in Timekeeping
The Miyota 9 series mechanical movements are premium mechanical movements that are a significant step up from the Miyota 8 series (the 8 series is comparable to the NH35/34/70 movements). They are currently the best made-in-Japan mechanical movements available to mircro-brands, and have a much higher made-in-Japan percentage when compared to Seiko TMI movements.
The 9075 introduces the Flyer/Traveler GMT function to their 9 series base movement. The Flyer/Traveler GMT complication is a significant step up from the Caller/Office GMT complication that is available to NH34. Even some significantly more expensive SWISS made Sellita movements are still limited to Caller/Office GMT functions. For collectors looking for a Flyer/Traveler GMT movement, this is definitely the best bang-for-the-buck offering currently available.
