The Zürich Weltzeit indicates the current time in all of the world’s 24 time zones while simultaneously displaying home time with a 24h indicator near the edge of the dial. A peripheral city ring makes it possible to set the zone times with pushbutton convenience. Thus, both times are readable at a glance. An arrow at 12 o'clock points at the city that represents the time zone to which the watch is momentarily set. When the time-zone pusher is pressed, this causes the city ring and the hour hand to advance step by step until the current time in the respective time zone is displayed.
