The word GMT is an acronym for “Greenwich Mean Time”. GMT watches are one of a kind with dual time zone options. It let the wearer track the current local time on the dial as well as calculate a different time zone in another region.
The concept of a GMT watch is clear- To display two-time readings on a single watch dial. An inner 12-hour dial you see displays the local time, and the outer 24-hour dial displays the time of the second region. It has the capacity to display a third-time zone if a 24-hour rotating bezel is inscribed.
Traditionally, a regular watch you wear has a standard hour and minute hand, but in GMT watches, you will find a third hand known as the GMT hand that completes its round across the dial in 24 hours, leaving no confusion about the Am and Pm. This GMT hand work in conjunction with the rotating bezel shows you the time in different zones.

In the GMT watch realm, you may have heard the terms ‘True, Caller, or Travel GMT’ - These are some of the GMT watch functions that make sense to someone in pursuing the watches. Understand each of these terminologies to make a better watch decision next time.
From a buyer perspective, Office GMT is a good option in case you do not travel a lot but need to track the time of other regions because you may have a relative there or probably your business is based there. Whereas, True GMT is practical for those traveling a ton.
The office GMT, also named caller GMT is intended for business applications. This is the most convenient watch for those who stay in one place. A watch with an office GMT feature allows the user to track the time of the region his office/ business is based.
The caller GMT watch has a 24-hour dial, and the GMT hand works independently without being affected by other hands. On a 24-hour scale, you can pull out the crown, bring it to the first position and rotate it to set the GMT hand in a one-hour increment.
Supposedly, If your main office resides in Australia and you are working from the US, you can calculate the time zone in Australia using your GMT watch. In this way, you can submit your deadlines and show up for the meetings at their desired time.
The Traveller / True GMT
As the name explains, this watch is traveler-friendly. This watch comes with a feature to allow travelers to quickly adjust the local time. They are ideal for people who need to travel to different time zones and may require frequent time adjustments.
In a True GMT watch, the central hour hand can be adjusted backward and forward by pulling the crown with just one click. It is relatively more expensive than Office GMT because of the in-house complex movement.
