GMT Jigsaw



Looks easy doesn't it, anyone know how I can work it out?

Quiz: what is the missing part(s) (apart from the case, caseback, bracelet, crystal & bezel)?

Hint: Sorry that would make it too easy (this is not a clue)

The 24 hour hand....

I dont see the hand that sets the GMT apart from any other watch, the 24 hour hand.

Any picts reassembling this watch. Great pict.

Geez man, your a pro that's not fair

Sorry I grabbed this pic off cyberspace, no more.

Anyway, there is at least one other part you missed, see if anyone else can spot it.

P.S. Well done

Dawg gawn it, I said NO pros!!!!!
I was hoping a few newbies, like me, might try, but all you heavyweight pros got in first

Spacedude: You are correct, but that was easy dude!

Anyway, now perhaps you will answer my primary question, how do you put it back together? Damn wish I knew.
