How can you use your watch as a compass ?

Hold your watch so that it is level with the ground and point the hour hand toward the su'n. South is halfway between the hour hand and the 12 o'clock mark. For example, at 5 minN utes after 10 A.M. (Standard Time), with the hour hand pointing at the sun, halfway between the 10 and 12 - or at the 11 - is the location of south. An imaginary line drawn through 11 and 5 points north and south.
