Up until now for my travels I have been using my trusty B1 - fantastic watch, for quickly changing to the "going to" time zone, without lossing accuracy. I just bought a Navi World however and being my new "toy", I would like to take it with me in my forthcoming trip. And here is the question: do you experienced users use the 24h function for the home time and set the 12h display according to the visiting place time? or the other way round? What is the suggested (?) way in order to minimize the need for accurate time resetting?
Thank you

I always did it the first way. I wanted to know at a glance what time it was where it was.

I always use the 24 hour hand for Zulu time. It's handy when filing flight plans, reading weather products, etc.

That's also the time zone I use for reference, wherever I go, so I never need to change it.
