Maybe it looks strange, but with a rotating gmt-bezel you dont need a gmt-hand...

No gmt-hand but gmt-bezel shows 2 timezones
No gmt-bezel but gmt-hand shows also 2 timezones
Gmt-hand and gmt-bezel shows 3 timezones
My old simple mind finds that too complicated to figure out…with a 24 hour bezel and a 12 hour, hour hand.

I do have a 12 hour bezel watch on a 12 hour, hour hand watch that I use when I travel (internationally) to quickly keep track of time at home.

My head is actually hurting trying how to easily use the tissot bezel to track 2 time zones short of turning it everytime I want to check.

This is a great thread.

I know this is the actual model name of the watch but do we really need to tell people there is a day and date on the watch? I mean they literally just bought a watch called a Rolex Day Date.
