At least you have a reason to have one.:) I don't travel overseas or to the west coast so I really don't need one. My Air King and DJ41 is all I need. ;)

Let me tell you this. I am in aviation, I travel all over the world on a regular basis. 5-6 international flights every month.
I have almost never used the GMT function on my E2 when I had it. I always kept my watch in my homeland time and the second time in UTC (Zulu). So, I never actually had the local time zone and my home time zone on my watch. Setting the watch all the time is a hassle I did not wanna go through for every trip I take. What I find useful is to know what day of the week is. I easily loose track when I'm on the road.....

I’ll admit I don’t use most of the complications on my watches. The ones I REALLY like are travel time (5164) — LOTS of use and PCs. Like the look of chronos- but rarely turn them on

May be a dumb question but I found this odd with my BLRO.. do you have to rotate the crown in the opposite direction to move the time forward?

Use it when traveling but even when I'm not, I set the GMT hand to Los Angeles timezone where my brother lives. I love the GMT complication, the most useful complication in my opinion.

We should not be informed about your cross dressing habits. If you enjoy it, go for it.
Sorry. I can't help myself when people use the term abroad. I know, its a sickness. I'm seeking therapy....from a broad. Damn I did it again. |

The new 32xx movements are opposite from the 31xx movements.

My 24hr hand is almost always set to local time. I find myself checking north regularly as I go about my day. It’s a fun accuracy check on my internal compass.

My wife watches a vlog from an English fellow surnamed Broad. And he happens to be abroad (but not a broad).
