Totally agree about the most useful complication! Basically a functional GMT without a polluted dial or bezel. For DST and for vacations, the most practical for sure.
I’m Andrew K. Nice to meet you all and excited to join.
Check out the GO Cosmopolite with independent DST and STD windows by IATA airport code with 35 times zones, some +30 or +45 and you set by time zone, not by hour as such. Beautiful watch and movement. Very useful complication.
I lived through the 1974 DST experiment. I was 13 and walking to school SUCKED!! As I got older the time change never bothered me. I did enjoy this past Sunday morning. Fresh hot coffee, spinning vinyl and a bunch of watches to change the time. Luckily, none of them had a Jump Hour hand (?) and I got to spin both hands into place. I even got to reset our Seth Thomas pendulum wall clock. Sunday is winding day for that one.
I’ve been looking for a watch with this exact complication so I’ll add: ceramic bezel Planet Oceans, the 43mm GO SeaQ, and earlier versions of the Panerai P.9010 movement (ex. in the PAM00682).
