Sorry if this is a dumb question. I have no experience with world timers. But since yours is an amazing watch I would love to understand it.

Thanks!

The red arrow is time in London and see New York at 16:00 that is current local time. Look to country to see time there.

Each hour corresponds to country. So at 4:00 today it was 21:00 in London, 22:00 in Geneva , and 23:00 in Cairo etc etc
