mariomobiel: Great widget!! Can u add a time zone called UTC/ZULU and Toronto? Or is there a way to edit the labels?

Yes and not :) Fenix3 menu allow only 16 positions, but timezones are 406:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones
ZULU is link to UTC (last position in table), and is always visible on widget.
Menu is compresed table to "minimal", and quick to select: all zones with out dst -1-1,-2-2,+1+1... and zones from 2 dst tables Europe and Nord America.
Toronto -5-4 is like New York.
Better way is edited labels. I'll think about this.

fberquin: The app I was waiting for. Great!. could you add Auckland (NZ) Paris (France) and more :-)

More is hard to manage, 'errorfriendly' and hard to browse on watch. Best way is select timezone and edit label yourself.

Cental Paris, Madrit, Berlin, Geneva, Rome, Warsaw, Oslo, Kopenhaga, Wien, Budapest, Ateny, Prague, Spitsbergen ... (+1+2) time is 'Cental Europe' and Europe dst.

Auckland (+12+13) is not defined now. NZ and Australia has own dst table - will be available in next version, I think today :)

At this moment I show offset to UTC in menu. First value is 'normal time shift', second is 'in dst' - but dst is enabled and disabled by const table and this table is dependent on local government. This table is defined for 5-6 years in future (and sometimes change ;)

Thanks for your reply, editing the lables will be a nice feature. I have a timezone in my Tactix that i labled as UTC/ZULU...it's a military thing ;)

Very nice app, I just installed but not sure how to change the default time zones from London, Warsaw and Moscow. Also, would be nice to be able to display the time in 12 or 24 hr format. Great work!!

Change timezones: press and hold menu/up button -> select slot -> select "quarter shifts" -> select city.
Time in 12h: is possible :) I change this in next version.

Can you make it available to 920xt?

Yes, I try, but I can't test this on phisical hardware. I have only f3.
Another problem is pixel depended hardcoded :(

You can try 0.0.4
