Featured here is another version of the Hamilton World Timer watch even less common than the 8984 models. Quartz powered, this 9712 model watch has the cities on a manually rotating bezel that is on the outside of the dial and crystal eliminating the left crown that's seen in the 8984 model. A contrasting white (daylight) and black (moonlight) inner ring rotates simultaneously as you set the time to indicate night or day as well as the 24 hour equivalent of your current time. If you are currently in Log Angeles and it is 10:00 a.m., set the hands to 10:00 then line the Los Angeles dot of the outer ring to the number 10 on the white (daylight) side of the inner ring. A quick glance at the New York dot would show that its position is at number 13 on the white side inner ring indication a time of 1:00 p.m.
