What Is a GMT Watch?
By World of Watches •
A GMT watch has an extra 24-hour hand that shows a second time zone, so you can keep home time while you travel. It also works as an ordinary watch when you are not travelling.
How It Works
The main hands show local time. The extra hand goes round once in 24 hours and points to a time on a 24-hour scale. Set it to home time and you can read both at a glance.
Who It Suits
- Travellers: Keep home time without changing the watch.
- International teams: Track an overseas office.
- Enthusiasts: Enjoy a useful complication.
