In American English, the term military time is a synonym for the 24-hour clock. [8] In the US, the time of day is customarily given almost exclusively using the 12-hour clock notation, which counts the hours of the day as 12, 1, ..., 11 with suffixes a.m. and p.m. distinguishing the two diurnal repetitions of this sequence.
Fixed several countries, mostly in Oceania. Australia, PNG, NZ and the Pacific Islands all use 12-hour time (except in some exceptional cases e.g flight times) 12:12, 7 May 2024: 2,754 × 1,398 (1.05 MB) Amiria703: Iran (IR) changed to 24 hour (12 hour orally) 21:05, 10 December 2022: 2,754 × 1,398 (1.05 MB) Getsnoopy
The World Clock in Alexanderplatz displays 146 cities in all 24 time zones on its head. [2] [3] It could also be a picture map of the world with embedded analog or digital time-displays. A moving circular map of the world, rotating inside a stationary 24-hour dial ring. Alternatively, the disc can be stationary and the ring moving.
The 24-hour analog dial continued to be used, but primarily by technicians, astronomers, scientists, and clockmakers. John Harrison, Thomas Tompion, and Mudge [7] built a number of clocks with 24-hour analog dials, particularly when building astronomical and nautical instruments. 24-hour dials were also used on sidereal clocks.
If present, a dagger (†) indicates the usage of a nautical time zone letter outside of the standard geographic definition of that time zone. Some zones that are north/south of each other in the mid-Pacific differ by 24 hours in time – they have the same time of day but dates that are one day apart. The two extreme time zones on Earth (both ...

Time zones of the world. A time zone is an area which observes a uniform standard time for legal, commercial and social purposes. Time zones tend to follow the boundaries between countries and their subdivisions instead of strictly following longitude, because it is convenient for areas in frequent communication to keep the same time.
