Read hours and minutes on a clock face
The short hand shows hours and the longer hand shows minutes. The seconds hand is optional. The hour hand moves between hour marks as minutes pass.
Choose a time zone to show another city on the same clock face. The date and UTC offset below the clock help explain a location that is on a different calendar day.
How to use this tool
- Select a city or time zone.
- Choose to show or hide seconds.
- Read the hands or use the digital reading to check them.
Example
At 3:30, the minute hand points to the sixth hour mark and the hour hand sits halfway between 3 and 4.
Common questions
Can I show an analog clock for another city?
Yes. Select that city's time zone. The hands and digital display both use the chosen zone.
