Hello!
I need some explanation(s) on Lindbergh-Weems' face.
- when I adjust the scale for the EoT value - the whole face with all its' dials rotate? In which proportions, i.e. if the EoT is, say -11m, "minus 11 minutes", what do I do?
- if I have a 24-hour watch - the degrees scale that corresponds to the hours should be marked from 180°W to 180°E, with 0° at 12:00, right?
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Tony
