I might print your comment to put in my wallet, because the only time I tried this without directions I got it backwards. I was showing Dad and Nick and I thought it was supposed to point North, not South.Caitlanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13895569417925326991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9147615635005334024.post-72996221320807558102012-04-23T10:01:04.828-07:002012-04-23T10:01:04.828-07:00One of the things I teach for copter stuff is find...One of the things I teach for copter stuff is finding compass directions using your watch. If your analog watch has on of those bezels you can turn it makes it really easy. You just decide what, on the bezel, will represent south then turn the bezel until it is halfway between the '12' and the hour hand. With the watch horizontal, you turn the whole watch until the hour hand is pointing at the sun. That's it! Now the point on the bezel representing south is pointing south, 180 degrees from that. obviously, north, and so on. These are northern hemisphere directions.flyingvanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07115555161258682091noreply@blogger.com
