Where might I find a good single hand gmt script for an analog watch?
Hi @scott.e.little , welcome to the forums.
Can you elaborate a bit? By “single hand gmt” script, do you mean you want a 24h rotation value for GMT? If so, you can use (#DNOW#/1000/60/60*360/24)
in the rotation field
If you want a 12h script, use 12 instead of 24…
Thanks. That is exactly what I was looking for. No I will parse that and figure out why it works!
let me know if you want me to break it down

Well if you’ve nothing else to do…
I’m quite busy actually, but sometimes my brain needs some distraction
- #DNOW# is a timestamp, number of milliseconds since 1-1-1970 0:00 or something.
- divide by 1000 → milliseconds to seconds
- divide by 60 → seconds to minutes
- devide by 60 → minutes to hours
- then the hours are converted to degrees → 360 degrees in a circle, 24 hours, so each hour is 360/24
It could of course all be written as #DNOW#/240000 but I usually break it up so I know what I was doing when I revisit something 3 weeks later
