Dual time watches are capable of displaying two time zones. They can do this in several ways. The second time can be shown on a 12-hour scale with an indication of AM or PM. The second time can also be displayed on a 24-hour scale where there\u2019s no need for an AM or PM designation.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>GMT Watches<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/search\/?q=gmt+master+ii\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-12452\" src=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/FhijGpjWIAAZoO2-1080x900.jpeg\" alt=\"Rolex GMT Master II Pepsi, Batman, and Sprite\" width=\"1080\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/FhijGpjWIAAZoO2-1080x900.jpeg 1080w, https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/FhijGpjWIAAZoO2-300x250.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/FhijGpjWIAAZoO2-768x640.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/FhijGpjWIAAZoO2-1200x1000.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/FhijGpjWIAAZoO2.jpeg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><em>Rolex GMT-Master II watches have a GMT complication<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Here\u2019s the thing, GMT watches are dual time watches by definition, but you can\u2019t say the same thing vice versa. Here\u2019s why. A GMT watch uses a 24-hour scale for the display of a second time zone.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">GMT stands for Greenwich Mean Time, a time standard developed for aviation to help pilots track time in a standardized way across the globe. Eventually, this was adjusted to the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) used today.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The 24-hour scale meant that there was no confusion for pilots on whether it was AM or PM, they always knew briefly where they stood timewise.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Real GMT watches also have a 24-hour hand that will independently jump back and forth between the hours so you can set a new \u2018local\u2019 time with incredible ease.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">&lt;&gt;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #006699;\"><strong>Is the Rolex Sky-Dweller a GMT watch?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/watches\/rolex-sky-dweller-blue-dial-steel-white-gold-mens-watch-326934--26288et\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11479\" src=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Rolex-Sky-Dweller-Steel-White-Gold-Blue-Dial.jpg\" alt=\"Rolex Sky-Dweller Steel White Gold Blue Dial\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Rolex-Sky-Dweller-Steel-White-Gold-Blue-Dial.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Rolex-Sky-Dweller-Steel-White-Gold-Blue-Dial-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Rolex-Sky-Dweller-Steel-White-Gold-Blue-Dial-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><em>Rolex Sky-Dweller Steel White Gold Blue Dial 326934<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So, this begs the question, is the Rolex Sky-Dweller a true GMT watch or a dual time watch? It\u2019s a complicated answer despite the above.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Unlike many GMT watches, the Rolex Sky-Dweller uses a unique and independent dial within the watch face to track the second time zone. This is through a 24-hour disc, suggesting that it is indeed a GMT watch. However, there were two standards to qualify as a true GMT watch.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The second standard, if you recall is if the hand or hour indicator can be adjusted back and forth with ease. While the Rolex Sky-Dweller doesn\u2019t have a 24-hour hand that will indicate the time in the second time zone, there\u2019s a stationary arrow at the top of the disc to indicate the time. In this case, the disc itself can move back and forth by the hour to change the time and does this without changing the other hands on the watch dial.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This beautiful watch does indeed fit both criteria of being a true GMT watch. Therefore, yes, the Rolex Sky-Dweller is indeed a true GMT watch.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">&lt;&gt;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #006699;\"><strong>How to set the time on your Rolex Sky-Dweller<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/search\/?q=326934\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10746 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/5T4A9609-1200x857.jpg\" alt=\"rolex sky-dweller ref. 326934\" width=\"1200\" height=\"857\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/5T4A9609-1200x857.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/5T4A9609-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/5T4A9609-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/thewatchclub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/5T4A9609.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><em>Rolex Sky-Dweller 326934<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Rolex Sky-Dweller may be one of Rolex\u2019s most technical watches to operate. It\u2019s worth it though when you consider the intelligent calendar and all the other advances that were included in the design. For instance, the sophisticated calendar only must be manually adjusted between February and March. Unlike other watches where you must advance the days manually after months with only 30 days, the Sky-Dweller tracks this on its own.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Unlike other Rolex watches, it\u2019s not crown positions that control what you\u2019re setting on the watch, it\u2019s the bezel. Here\u2019s how to set the time on your Rolex Sky-Dweller.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #006699;\"><strong>Bezel Positions<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">Instead of pulling out the crown, you\u2019re going to rotate the fluted bezel on the watch counterclockwise. There are three positions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Position I<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">This position is located between 10 and 11 o\u2019clock. Turn the bezel counterclockwise (you start at 12 o\u2019clock) and stop between 10 and 11. Here you can change the month and date setting.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Position II<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">This position is located between 9 and 10 o\u2019clock. Turn the bezel from the starting point at 12 o\u2019clock counterclockwise, stopping between 9 and 10. Here you can set the local time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Position III<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">Third position is between 8 and 9 o\u2019clock. Starting from 12 o\u2019clock rotate the bezel counterclockwise to rest between 8 and 9. In this position, you can set the reference time on the inner dial.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #006699;\"><strong>Setting your reference time<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Step 1<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">You still must unscrew the crown of your watch to release the waterproofing safety lock. Pull the crown out to Position 2.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Step 2<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">Turn your bezel all the way to position III between 8 and 9 o\u2019clock. Remember to turn counterclockwise. This position will stop the second hand to allow you to set the time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Step 3<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">Set the hour on the 24-hour display dial.

Note two things: the minute hand is set in the previous step, your hour hand only will jump in position II; check whether you\u2019re in AM or PM by starting at 12 o\u2019clock, if the date changes, you\u2019re at midnight, if it doesn\u2019t, you\u2019re at noon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Step 4<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">Turn the bezel clockwise back to 12 o\u2019clock.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Step 5<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">Screw down the crown and make sure it\u2019s locked.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #006699;\"><strong>Setting the month and date<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\">You\u2019ll only have the make this manual adjustment if your watch stops or from February to March. Position I of the bezel allows you to adjust the month via the red window on the outer edge of the dial (12 being December and 1 January and so on) and the date in the window.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">&lt;&gt;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #006699;\">Is the Rolex Sky-Dweller a GMT?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Rolex Sky-Dweller is a true GMT watch.
