🌍 How the GMT Works
-
The main hands show your local time
-
The GMT hand shows a second time zone on the 24-hour scale
-
If your watch has a rotating bezel, you can track a third time zone by aligning it with the GMT hand
💡 Quick Tips
-
Winding: If your watch stops, wind it before setting the time
-
Date first, then time: Always set the date before setting the time to avoid misalignment
-
Avoid setting the date between 9PM–3AM

Water resistance depends on your case design—check individual specs
