How To Read A GMT Watch

About this video

Sacawa demonstrates how to use a GMT watch bezel to tell time in two different time zones simultaneously. He explains how the GMT hand works in conjunction with the rotating bezel, using his Rolex GMT-Master as an example, and shows practical applications for tracking time across multiple cities.

Key takeaways

  • Sacawa explains that when the bezel is set to 12:00, the GMT hand displays local time, allowing you to read the primary timezone directly
  • Sacawa demonstrates rotating the bezel left or right to calculate time in different cities by adjusting for hour differences between zones
  • Sacawa recommends GMT watches as practical tools for frequent travelers, noting that Rolex is not the only brand offering this functionality at various price points
