What Is a World Clock?

A world clock shows the live current time in multiple cities at once. It's different from a time zone converter, which translates a specific time from one zone to another. A world clock answers "what time is it right now in Tokyo?" — not "what time will my 3 PM meeting be in Tokyo?"

For remote teams, a world clock is more useful than a converter for daily scheduling. You glance at it in the morning to know which colleagues are already at lunch, who's about to start their day, and who's offline. No math, no conversion — just the current time in each city.

The clocks above update in real time using your browser's system clock and the IANA Time Zone Database — the same database that powers every operating system's timezone handling. When a country changes its DST rules, the IANA database is updated, and this clock reflects the change automatically.

📊 57% of workers use at least 3 different time zones in their weekly work, according to Harvard Business Review research on global collaboration patterns. A world clock that shows all active zones at once reduces scheduling errors and the friction of mentally converting between them. — Harvard Business Review

Best Overlap Hours for Common Remote Team Combinations

US East Coast + India (EST + IST)

7:30–9:30 AM EST = 6:00–8:00 PM IST

Early morning US, late evening India. 2-hour workable window. Push past 9:30 AM EST and India is past 8 PM.

US East Coast + UK (EST + GMT)

9:00 AM–1:00 PM EST = 2:00–6:00 PM GMT

4-hour overlap in winter. Drops to 3 hours during the spring DST mismatch weeks.

US West Coast + UK (PST + GMT)

9:00 AM–12:00 PM PST = 5:00–8:00 PM GMT

3-hour window. Tight but workable. 9 AM PST is right at the edge of UK business hours ending.

US + Australia (EST + AEST)

Near-zero same-day overlap

EST and AEST are 14–15 hours apart. Teams typically do async-first, with occasional early-morning US / early-evening Australia calls.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a world clock?

A world clock shows the current local time in multiple cities simultaneously. Unlike a time zone converter (which converts a specific time), a world clock shows live, continuously-updating times so you can see at a glance what time it is right now in any city.

How do I add a city to the world clock?

Use the search box at the top of the clock to find any city. Type the city name and select it from the dropdown — it'll be added to your clock display alongside the current local time, date, and UTC offset.

What is the current time in London, New York, and Tokyo?

The world clock above shows live current times for all major cities. London uses GMT (UTC+0) in winter and BST (UTC+1) in summer. New York uses EST (UTC-5) in winter and EDT (UTC-4) in summer. Tokyo uses JST (UTC+9) year-round — Japan doesn't observe daylight saving.

Which time zones don't observe daylight saving time?

Most of Asia and Africa don't observe DST. Japan, China, India, the Philippines, and most Middle Eastern countries use fixed UTC offsets year-round. In the US, Arizona (except the Navajo Nation) stays on MST permanently. The EU voted to abolish DST, though implementation has been delayed.
