Supposing that the hour hand is pointing to the current hour in Hong Kong
which is 2:00 PM:
1. Convert the current hour in Hong Kong to the 24-hour format.
2:00 PM to 14:00
2. Turn the bezel until the city name HONG KONG points to "14" on the 24-
hour marker. The hour in Paris which is 7 o’clock in the morning (7:00
AM) can be obtained by reading the hour marker to which the city name
PARIS corresponds.
The same manner can be applied to read the time in any other city on the
bezel.
For example, the hour in Los Angeles can be read as 22:00 (10:00 PM).
The same manner can be applied to read the time, if the 24-hour marker is not
indicated on the model.
The time differences between cities represented by the city names on the bezel
are one-hour offsets.
