Re: GMT setting

In Response To: Re: GMT setting ()

Thank you Brian, with Keith's assistance, I have it all sorted out. Incredible watch in my opionion! Vince

There has been much written about different
: types of GMT movements - let's see what I
: can remember.

: The Omega and Rolex has true GMT movements.
: Yours is working as it should. The idea is
: to only have to set the hour hand without
: hacking the movment. I travel throughout the
: US every week. I will set my hour hand on
: the plane to my new time and my watch is on
: the money all the time. I keep my GMT hand
: set to Zulu time and rotate my bezel to
: track the time in Iraq - I'm in the Army.

: This is the way a real GMT watch should work.
: Takes a while to set it so get a winder if
: you don't have one....

: Brian
