24 Hour Bezel?

[drockadam]

Good Evening All!

Hope all is well.

I have a question for you all. I'm curious about the 24 hour bezel. I have one on my school watch. What I'm asking is how to set the bezel, for different time zones and such. Like how do I set my bezel for Los Angeles time? (PDT). I am in EDT time zone. I always leave the bezel at 24 hours. Please explain to me.

Sure! I believe LA time with Daylight savings is -7, and EDT is -4, so you need to turn it so that so turn it so that the 21 on the bezel is at the 12 on the dial, because LA is 3 hours behind the time that the hand is set for. Then read Eastern time off the dial like you normally would, and LA off the bezel.

Although I'm not seeing a 24 hour hand on the watch? So I might be totally off here. With no 24 hour hand, you're going to think it's 12 when it's actually 6...hmm. If there isn't a 24 hour hand, just subtract 3 hours!

Hope this helps...

PS: I'm sure someone who knows more about that watch can give you more definitive answer.

Alright! Thanks so much! There isn't a 24 hour hand on it.

Really? Huh. Now I'm confused....I have no idea what the point of that bezel is

Haha I don't either!! It's a cheap $20 watch from Wal-Mart. I use it for school.

Dear God, no WalMart in Ontario should EVER get caught selling their watches for $20.

Haha! I honestly don't know if it is a Wal-Mart watch, my brother had it for a while, but he doesn't wear watches. So he gave it to me.
