have to decide which value you need. If you
choose 10 to represent the number “10,” then the
calibrations or “notches” between 10 and 11
represent 0.1. Each notch reads: 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, and
so on. Take a look at your Abingdon watch to see
what I mean. But if you choose 10 to represent the
number 100, then the calibrations between 10 and 11
represent 1. Now each calibration reads: 101, 102,
103, and so on. Try it out for yourself. It takes some
getting used to, but I believe in you. Keep practicing
and you will get the hang of it.
Time Calculations
First, let’s take a look at your Abingdon watch. See
the inner ring? This ring is a conversion of the
middle ring from minutes to hours. Let me show you
how easy this is. Find the number 70 on the middle
ring (It’s around the one o’clock position). If you
look opposite the 70 on the inner ring, you will see
1:10. 70 minutes is 1 hour and 10 minutes!
