GMT-Master II How I setup My Watch

I recently acquired a BLNR. This was my first GMT style watch with a rotating bezel and that fact presented me with a couple of options. Now I could track 3 separate times. One for the GMT arrow hand, one with the bezel, and one with the standard hour and minute hands. This maybe how everyone manages this but I thought I would share.

I decided to track Zulu or UTC time as I am a amateur radio operator with the GMT hand, use the bezel for home time based on the offset between Centeral time and UTC time, and since I travel set the hour and minute hand to the local time wherever I am I the world. Currently I am in Hawaii.

Here is the example:

UTC: 23:57
CST: 17:5
HST: 13:57
