Life on the road: three time zones on his wrists
After his global prominence from the 1960s onward, Fuller became a frequent flier lecturing across time zones: he wore three watches at once, for the time zone of his university office, of the place he would visit next, and of where he currently was. In the 1970s he was at “home” roughly 65 nights a year and spent the other 300 in hotel beds on his lecturing and consulting circuits.
