I guess technically you could with 2-1/2 hash marks on the diver bezel being equivalent to 1 hour of time change… It seems much simpler to just use your GMT or your phone, though.

There is nothing the GMT can’t do in or out of the water.

Yes, multiple diver bezel number by 2, turn as needed. GMT is more suitable because it is a 24 hour hand.

If the time difference isn’t greater than 12 hrs apart. You set the hands to the local time then rotate the diver bezel such that the hands would be at home time relative the bezel. Easier to just take the GMT.

Take the DSSD, buy some Prevagen, add or subtract the beach hours needed for the work TZ.

Or you can just remember how many hours ahead or behind you are from your home time. Math!
Take the DSSD. |

Wear the watch you want to take and then work out how many hours ahead or behind the second time zone is then just do the math and work it out in your head.

Apply basic math or use GMT. Problem solved

Jumping through hoops for a time zone seems like unnecessary torture.
It only takes a half minute to re-set your watch so take the one you want and enjoy life. Personally, I generally take a GMT or an Exp II on travels, but I have been known to wear a TT Sub on Cruises and it just isn't a big deal.

Gotta take it to make those vacation memories with it. Vacation almost solidifies if a watch is a superstar for your lifestyle. Meaning, if a watch can be worn on a extended vacation without the option of another time piece and you still love it after the trip, it’s a keeper.

I keep track of two time zones, I just remember to add or subtract hours for the desired time zone

Sounds like a vacation so I say take the DSSD and just go with the flow.
