Blood In The Water, Water In Its Blood: A Brief History of Squale. Any history of the dive watch would be incomplete without a thorough look at Squale. But despite its illustrious history, this small Swiss brand is still largely unknown to all but the most hardcore dive watch nerds.
Coordinated Universal Time (French: Temps universel coordonnÃ©), abbreviated as UTC, is the primary time standard by which the world regulates clocks and time. It is within about 1 second of mean solar time at 0Â° longitude; it does not observe daylight saving time.
The UTC is based on an atomic clock to which adjustments of a second (called a leap second) are sometimes made to allow for variations in the solar cycle. Coordinated Universal Time is expressed using a 24-hour clock but can be converted into a 12-hour clock (AM and PM). UTC is used in plane and ship navigation, where it also sometimes known as Zulu. UTC uses the Gregorian calendar.
