Show us your worldtimers

[MartynJC (UK)]

Let’s see them! I used to have an IWC worldtimer but sold it a while back - now thinking of adding one back - so interested in seeing what people have?

[monogroover]

Don't have one now, but I miss this one that I had a few years back:

My favourite complication.

Coredriller’s PP is stunning.

[Tom-P]

Never seen one of those - that is absolutely superb.

[Tangent]

Ditto. Worldtimer and an alarm? Perfect

[Mitch]

Pretty watch but it would annoy the hell out of me that it was showing incorrect times for half the year.

it might be 16.00 in London but it ain't 1.00 in Tokyo, it is 2.00.

Thanks for those. Never noticed that on the Patek’s - but wow - most others have a red dot to signify daylight savings (which may get abolished someday). Could be a painful redial cost for some!

Has anyone experience of the JLC Geophysic true-seconds worldtimer?

[Skyman]

Pretty, but pretty pointless as a complication.

Maybe to you. They have their uses.

Unless you're going to say 'I use my phone' in which case ditch your watches (excepting divers...)

I had this fun Raketa for a while.

Not a phone guy, me. But nor am I a useless complication guy. However, I do have a mid-60s Seiko WT as a curiosity piece. But no way would I pay serious money on one. Too niche.

Some of these are really lovely.
Is there such a thing as a quartz world-timer? I saw a few GMTs, but quartz seems rare as world-time complication.

[alfat33]

I’m pretty sure there are some Citizen and Seiko quartz world timers. Might be worth a google.

[dandanthewatchman]

Love mine. I love GMT’s as well and have a few. Very useful when travelling as the main time is destination and 24 hour hand stays on home time, but the worldtimer on this JLC is very useful IMHO. Have a son travelling in South America at the moment and having his time zone on the second watch face means I don’t have to work out where he is up to. It’s there at a glance.

Watch Club have (or they did last week) a WG PP world timer - have to say I’ve had to resist having a proper look at it !

Well, assuming you are in the UK, the New York time is wrong. As there is a second dial I presume you can adjust for DST.

The trouble with the fixed bezel types is the times can be all over the place, some are not correct a lot of the time.

Old picture as watch in the safe - but you can adjust - the top crown moves the city ring and the hour hand on the second dial jumps with it. Also has an am/pm indicator. Loved it in 2005 and when I bought it and still love it today. It’s outlasted many others in the collection

My point exactly. A confused mess as a complication, albeit the worldwide cities make a nice talking point.

[mtagrant]

Seems these are more common then I thought...

Like buses!!!


Or the only 3 that people were mad enough to purchase one!

Madness is clearly a form of genius in this case 😄

[amcneill]

Such an underrated watch.Zenith, chrono,alarm with power indicator etc..,world complication,big date feature - £10k? New and I've seen them go for £6k used.

Facetious perhaps, but it fits the description!

Totally agree. I have just acquired my first Zenith - a Tipo CP-2 from SC - and am hugely taken with it. This Doublematic would be my next wish if it wasn't 45mm, which I know I can't pull off.

My first decent watch. Bought in 1988, about 35% off in AbuDhabi !
