Compass

[terre <tobytrot@bigfoot.com>]

How about this:   Your Watch as a Compass

Point the hour hand of the watch to the sun, and south is exactly half-way
between the hour and and the "12" on the watch;  eg--assuming it is 9
o'clock, point the hour hand (indicating 9)to the sun, and the point
half-way between "10" and "11" is due south; or assume that it is 4 o'clock
and point the hour hand at the sun--the figure "2" indicated south.

Of course--it will only work during the day--and only if your watch is
running!
