SOLID MOVEMENT HOLDER: THE PERFECT HOUSE FOR THE SEIKO VH31 MOVEMENT
Nowadays, quartz watches and even some mechanical watches are using plastic movement holders. At Wolbrook, we found the metal ones more noble and durable. While our mechanical watches have always used metal holders, the Skindiver WT Mecaquartz along the Skindiver WT Chrono-Mecaquartz and Skindiver WT Pro Chrono-Mecaquartz are now also featuring solid metal movement holders.
TIME ZONES
TRACKING FUNCTION
On the bezel, the “+” and “-” in front of the cities allow you to define if these cities are before or after Greenwich, and if you need to read a time difference clockwise or anti-clockwise. Between “Greenwich” and “+Tokyo”, you have a time difference of +9 hours and between “Greenwich” and “-Denver” you have a time difference of -7 hours.
Let’s say you are in Sebring, Florida, USA and you want the time in Le Mans, France.
1. Sebring follows the Eastern Time Zone / UTC-05:00 (defined by “-New York” on the bezel), then you need to rotate the bezel and put "-New York" on the hour marker just passed by the hour hand. If it's 12:30 in Sebring. Then you place "-New York" on the 12:00 marker.
2. Le Mans follows Paris time zone / UTC+01:00. Paris is a forward time zone (there is a little “+” in front), you read the bezel clockwise and you see that it indicates 18:00. So, it's 18:30 in Paris and Le Mans.
