Keep in mind that the GMT hand uses the 24-hour scale on the dial, so be sure to set the GMT hand accordingly. For example, if it's 10:00am, then set the GMT hand to the 10. If it's 10:00pm, then set the GMT hand to 22. The GMT hand will go around the dial once every 24 hours, so it becomes easy to tell day from night using that hand.
As was noted, when you travel, you can set the GMT hand to your local time zone while the standard hour hand keeps track of your home time, or vice versa. It's probably better to use the GMT hand to track your local time zone. Then, to use the bezel, turn it until the city that represents the time zone you're in is aligned with the GMT hand. Then, look for the city representing the time zone you're interested in and see which hour on the 24-hour scale it's aligned with - that's the hour in the third time zone (your standard hour hand is tracking time at home, the GMT hand is tracking time where you are) you're interested in.
You'll have to repeat this operation each time you check the time in a third time zone; the bezel doesn't stay synchronized with the rest of the watch.
I hope this was helpful - Good Luck!
