Re: WristWatch Selection

Capt Claret,
The model I have is a Captain Sky. I used to live in Darwin so I'm familiar with the problem you've had with Citizen watches!

My wife worked at a jewellery store and bought it for me for a Xmas present. By sheer coincidence she happened to get the one Citizen watch which would be useful in the NT.

P.S. there is a work around for the other world timers with the intergrated digital/analogue display. One of the steps to setting up the watch is to set the analogue display to UTC, if you set it for 12:30 instead of 12:00 then the analogue will be a 1/2 hour advanced from the digital display. Then if you set the analogue for UTC + 9 it will show UTC + 9 1/2. Unfortunately that means that it will be a half hour out from all the other time zones as well.
