Hi Jamey,
your 1st execution auto GMT is my absolute favourite GMT watch. The 1-24 bezel is more busy than the later even number versions but the overall balance of the colours from the dial/hands /bezel is a real credit to the designer. I agree with Jeff, the designers hit the mark on their first attempt.
I love my example below -
