Quick tips on GMT-II and Exp-II models!!

Hi guys,

Just a few quick and easy tips on the useage of your GMT-II or Exp-II Rollies.

1. The RED or GREEN 24-hour hand is ALWAYS to be read off the BEZEL - NEVER the DIAL!!

2. The 24-hour hand will make just ONE rotation around the dial in 24-hours (unlike the small hour hand which completes 2 rotations in the same period of time).

3. The small hour-hand can be moved in BOTH directions, any time of day or night. You can flick the DATE backward or forward - no problems whatsoever. This model with the additional time-zone complication has been designed to have the small hour hand move in BOTH directions and the DATE flicked over in both ways - without affecting the movement.

Good luck - JJ
