Does DST self adjust for other time zones if you have a radio-controlled watch with world-time?

Vintage MRG appreciation thread

Back in the early-mid 90’s, some genius at Casio (or group of geniuses), thought of doing something different over in the Gshock division.

GMW-B5000GD-9
GMW-B5000GD-1
GMW-B5000KL-9
GMW-B5000-1
GMW-B5000TFC-1
GMW-B5000G-2
GMW-B5000G-1
GMW-B5000V-1
GMW-B5000TFG-9

You know you have problems when you’re trying to figure out which G the guy is wearing based on the strap when the dial is upside down on his wrist!
