The GoodPlanet Planet Ocean GMT is the blue dial and bezel with orange GMT accents. It is the travel version of the Planet Ocean, and the DD8605 with a real jumping hour is the mechanical heart. The blue and orange combination is the GoodPlanet signature.

The dial and bezel. Deep blue dial, blue ceramic bezel, orange GMT accents. The blue is the oceanic base, and the orange shows up in the 24-hour scale on the bezel and the GMT hand. The contrast is what makes the GoodPlanet recognizable. Arabic numerals at 6, 9, and 12, rhodium plated indices. The orange GMT hand is the one bit of color that ties the whole thing to the bezel scale.
The movement. Dandong 8605 GMT. The key is the jumping hour hand, which lets you change time zones and adjust the date without stopping the watch. Dual barrels for stable power delivery, and the black balance wheel that matches the genuine Co-Axial look. It is a true integrated clone, not a modified base.
The case. 43.5mm, which is large, and 17.25mm thick. The Planet Ocean GMT is a substantial watch. Twisted lyre lugs and a functioning helium escape valve at 10 o'clock. Domed sapphire with double-sided AR coating.
The bracelet. Three-link steel, brushed surfaces with polished sides, deployant clasp with a diver's extension.
The takeaway. The GoodPlanet is the Planet Ocean for travel. The blue and orange GMT layout gives it a nautical identity that the standard Planet Oceans do not have, and the DD8605 jumping hour is the functional reason to pick it over a plain dive watch. It is big at 43.5mm and 17mm thick, so it wears like a proper tool watch. If you want the Planet Ocean with a real GMT complication and the blue-orange look, this is the one. The jumping hour is what separates it from a decorated three-hander with a fake GMT.
