Most useful complication?
I was giving this some thought the other day. I have watches with Alarms, dates, Chronographs and second time zone functions.
What do you think is the most used complications or function, apart from telling the time and making you feel happy?!
For me it is the Alarm. I use this daily on the Memovox. However in the pre-pandemic world, as I traveled frequently, the GMT function was my most useful complication.
Clearly there are more complicated complications, perpetual calendars, minute repeaters, equation of time etc, but I am curious to see what the general concecus is here?

Actually love the big date (two disk date display), PC and chronograph!
Useful complication
I gotta go with dual time, WT, or GMT. As a person who still has families on the other side of the world, it is nice to look at my watch and imagining their activities over there 🙂.
Hands down, for me it is the alarm. GMT/dual time/world time is useful..
Only if you do, and can travel frequently. Chronogrpah, I have two of them, but almost never use them. Being older, I start to easily miss/forget something, for which an alarm watch is very useful. I can use my phone as an alarm, but I miss the reminder a...
