Slight tangent to your search of a Seiko GMT, but check aliexpress for any watch that has a movement called NH34. It's the GMT movement made by Seiko that's sold to other brands. You'll be able to find GMT watches for much cheaper than Seiko's offerings and even be better equipped with a sapphire crystal
This was my first automatic watch. Now, $30k later, I'm admitting I have a problem 😂 this is a gateway watch to more expensive ones in the future lol. I highly encourage it. If you do not currently own an automatic, just buy this and get a $5 resizing tool and you're going to feel like a different man.
Pretty good deal for the times. The 7s is a pretty basic movement, but it's been in use for so long for good reason. It's no frills, but its durable and generally halfway accurate (or can be regulated to be accurate). Just know, these watches are the gateway to a much more expensive rabbit trail of automatics...

I want an unflashy seiko automatic with at least 2 time zones (cause for work). Does it exist?

You're looking for a GMT hand. This would NOT have the second hour hand like you want.

The 7s doesn't have a hacking or handwinding function which is most people's strike against it. Seiko's 4R (or NH in the aftermarket) is the newer generation of this 7s and it does have those features. You can "hack" these in a way by very very slightly twisting the crown backwards while you're setting the time. Can't say that it's recommended as you're physically stopping the seconds hand from advancing, but I've done it before. If you keep your expectations in line, these are a good value for a name brand.

In 2015, I rec'd an Orient Bambino as a gift. It was my first automatic watch. Until then, I rarely ever owned more than one watch at a time and always quartz. Within two years of receiving this innocent and well meaning gift, I was hopelessly addicted to watches, in particular automatics. I do not even know how many I own now. As I write this note, I am wearing one of my favorites, a SARB035 on a brown leather strap.

Back OT, the watch posted is an excellent example of the Seiko 5 line and inherent value. The blue dial will be stunning. Only thing I would change would be to replace the folded links bracelet with a nice leather strap. Then, this SNK357 would never cease to impress and please the owner...slow release charm.. Also, I would ignore any sniping about the 7S26 movement. It is a proven reliableand reasonably accurate movement and just about any jeweler can work on it.

Thanks to the OP for posting.

Citizen eco drive is not an automatic; it's a solar quartz. This 7s movement in this deal doesn't hack or handwind. If you want those features in a Seiko, I'd recommend looking for one of the newer Seiko 5 with the stylized 5 logo. Those will have 4R movements that can hack and handwind. However, most (all?) of the newer seiko 5 are dive style watches and nothing like the watch in this deal
