You have the time where you are (1), the GMT hand set to the rehaut time (2), the bezel rotated to match the GMT hand (3). That's three at-a-glance times; then you get the 4th by turning the bezel to other time zone you want to see (4).

A Rolex GMT will do options 1, 3 and 4 but not option 2.

Personally, though, I gave up travelling with a GMT years ago. I hardly ever needed to know the time back home, and it wasn't hard to work it out if I did. I'm more likely to lose track of days on the road, so I take a day/date of some kind. Usually a GS or Seiko, or Tudor.
