[QUOTE="samurai_schaefer, post: 2419032, member: 813769"] I am looking to buy a new watch, and I noticed quite a few of them will have the main watch, and three or four round gadgets on the inside of the watch that tell certain things. I know one can be the date, and the other can be the time of month or the day of the week, but it seems like there are some on there I just don't understand what they are for. For example this watch: http://image.made-in-china.com/2f0j00yBqthKearcbv/Wrist-Watch-Camera.jpg what exactly are the dials for and why are they on there? How dumb does someone have to be to not know what those dials are trying to say? I doubt if the one dial is pointing to the eighth day of the month someone is going to find it practical to count all the little tick marks to see what day it is point to. What's with that 12/3/6/9 dial? Don't I know this by looking at the big and little hands on the whole damn big watch? It is confusing to me. Basically on an analog watch, why are there so many gadgets, what do they do, and what should I look for on my watch, if anything specific? I like the watches that just have MON/13 where the number 3 goes so I know what day and time it is. Anyway I hope someone can shed some light on this complexing problem. [/QUOTE]
