Guys - when traveling international, I still like to have phone paired with watch to get and response to text messages, etc. However I like to keep my phone on my home time zone and apple watch on the local time where I'm at. Possible without having to de-pair?

Thanks

What if you just disable bluetooth on the watch and/or phone for the trip. I wonder if the watch would then pick up the time over GPS or Wifi. I suspect it would. Leaving you to manually set the time on your phone.

Duh, you said keep them paired. Never mind. :D

For what it's worth I just keep the local time, always. But I have a clock set up for "home" time if I need it. I haven't used the GMT type face but that might be an option too. The watch also has the World Clock complication.
