The Alpinist has an inner rotating compass bezel so they won't always line up with the hour markers.

I've got a Seiko SNA411 with the direction markers on a rotating outer bezel but I generally just use the 12, 3, 6 & 9 markers for N, E, S & W.

Just always seemed a bit redundent to me.

But like I said, there may well be a reason for it that I'm not yet aware of.

You can figure out where north is from the sun and the hands and set the bezel to keep track?
