To be honest I studied it for ages and I couldn't work out how to tell the time :(

You tell the time by looking at your location on the globe and reading the number on the outside rim of the watch underneath.

In other words, on the east coast of the US, in the picture below, it would be about 8:30 or 9:00 AM. It's hard to tell at that angle.

That explains it! Thank you! :clap3:

It's actually quite a good way to tell the time around the world - would be better perhaps on a desk though.

Mind you, I wouldn't want to boil an egg with this thing! :lol: Err, your egg's ready when Afghanistan hits where western Turkmenistan is right now!

Hehe...it would be nice to be able to swap them over on a long haul flight! Although, of course, the true aficionado wears two of these watches at a time - one of top of the wrist, one underneath ;)

Looking at the pic, Antartica does seem to dominate southern hemisphere watch; damn geography.

On a (silly) medical note - if you pull your jumper down over this watch I think you could pull off a great impression of a ganglion cyst!
