People travelling
East
, for example from London to Hong Kong, should
pull the crown out to position 2 and move the hour hand forwards
(in this case by 8 hours). The table above can be used to calculate any
time difference.
People travelling
West
, for example from London to New York, should
pull the crown out to position 2 and move the hour hand backwards
(in this case by 5 hours). The table above can be used to calculate any
time difference.

time back home – London, in our example – at a glance, using the
24-hour scale on the dial. The second time zone – in this case Hong

hour hand crosses midnight, the date jumps forwards or backwards,
depending on whether the hour hand is moved forwards or backwards.
The crown has 3 positions:
