Huaco Kid Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I've dozens of clocks. Probably 50/50 regular/military time. A couple UTC for astronomical stuff. I've got a binary wristwatch around here somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crockett Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 (edited) Military, when being asked for the time, but all my watches run on regular 12 hour cycles. I thought about buying a Botta 24 h watch not too long ago, but my eyes won't like it... Edited July 11, 2018 by crockett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clancy Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Hey, man, like I am not into time. It is nothing but man's attempt to measure and label something that doesn't really exist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, there are people on opposite sides of the planet that need things to happen in a very coordinated manner. Hence, Zulu time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janice6 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I have been an Amateur Radio Operator all my life and got comfortable with GMT and 24 hour clocks/time. Now that I am more "retired", I use a 12 hour watch, but have no difficulty thinking in 24 hour time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tous Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 What Eric said. The 24-clock is natural for me, as is Lima and Zulu. But then, so is Geriltol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OV1kenobi Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 (edited) Military, because that is what my employer (USPS) uses. Second nature to me. That is what I set my iPhone clock, alarms and watches to if I have this option. Edited July 11, 2018 by OV1kenobi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F14Scott Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 I use ships' bells.Right now, it's almost 8 bells of the last dog watch https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ship%27s_bellSent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tous Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 I try to forget life managed by ship's bells. And the c,loying stink of Diesel in the lungs, in the water, in the food. But, it only took a few hours back on the boat before it all smelled like home. Except the heads. They always smelled like rotting dinosaurs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the ship gets rolling, and the bilges start sloshing, the fumes start spreading up through the ship, and the "throwing up" starts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G26S239 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 I am comfortable using military time or am pm. When I sign into or out of a unit or filling out a JHA I use military time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XSIV4S Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 I hardly ever use a clock any more (I generally prefer a mercury switch), but in a pinch I use something like this: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
