Very interesting watch and post! Well, I just disagree on what point: You don't have to do a little math with a true world timer, as each of the 24 cities are mentioned and coupled to the 24 hours Time zone.
It is a cool and original watch you have, here.
Thanks, once again for this article!

Rado Captain Cook Over-Pole. The smallest and thinnest "World Timer"
Finally got it after 6 months of waiting. Currently the smallest and "worldtimer" (more on that later) at 37 mm diameter and 9.8 mm thickness (10.3 mm with box sapphirre crystal). Manually wound Rado Caliber R862, which is modified ETA with 80 hours power...
Yes, a bit look cheap. And worse, it does not has any micro adjustment.
Fortunately, the bracelet has quick release system.
Congrats on the NWA!
That’s a very nice Rado, in fact one of the nicest I have seen in recent years. Wear it in great health!

In a true worldtimer, one can instantly know the time in other timezones, for the current moment. But if he want to know the time in other time zone at future time, for example, 3 or 6 hours ahead...he can't instantly know what time is it in the future. U...
You're welcomed, Nico. Other fascinating simple "complication" is the Gyrodate from GP
Clever way to know the day of any given date instantly. Really wish they would re-issue it.
Great watch and discription! Thank you and enjoy it! 👍🏻😃
I was looking at it myself, but found it to be a bit too small (for me - my eyes getting older too… 😅) Any yes, more technique can be fascinating, but simple is (from a practice standpoint) often better! 👍🏻 Ps: As an alternative to the Rado Worldtimer I h...
I like it a lot
It is novel and well designed. Beautiful piece and congrats on the purchase.
