Universal world timepiece

Apparatus comprising:

• a clock enabling time coordination by persons in different time zones, including:
• a 24-hour clock face,
• wherein the clock face includes a plurality of hour marks, wherein a position of each hour mark is fixed relative to all other hour marks on the clock face,
• wherein each respective hour mark corresponds to a respective hour among the 24 hours represented by the clock face,
• at least one indicator,
• wherein the at least one indicator is movable relative to all the hour marks on the clock face to indicate a current time in a time zone where the clock is currently located,
• a dial,
• wherein the dial is movable relative to all the fixed hour marks on the clock face,
• wherein the dial includes
• 24 icons, wherein each icon visibly differs from each of the other icons,
• wherein each icon is selectively positionable through dial movement relative to the clock face, to be in linear aligned relation with each one of the hour marks on the clock face,
• a computer,
• wherein the computer is in operative connection with the dial,
• wherein the computer is operative to cause
• responsive at least in part to at least one received wireless network signal, a determination of a current local time in a time zone where the clock is currently located,
• responsive at least in part to the local time determination, the dial to move relative to all the hour marks and be positioned with one particular icon linearly aligned with one particular hour mark,
• wherein the at least one indicator is indicative of each of
• the current local time based on a positional relationship of the at least one indicator relative to the hour marks, and
• a current world wide standard time based on a positional relationship of the at least one indicator relative to the icons on the dial.

• a computer,
• wherein the computer is in operative connection with the dial,
• wherein the computer is operative to cause
• responsive at least in part to at least one received network communication signal, a determination of the current time in the local time zone where the clock is currently located,
• responsive at least in part to the current time determination,
• the at least one indicator to move to indicate the determined current time, and
• the dial to be positioned with each particular icon visually associated with one respective particular hour mark,
• wherein the visual association of each particular icon with the one respective particular hour mark is indicative that each particular hour mark in the local time zone corresponds to a respective hour of a world wide standard time that is designated by the one particular icon,
• whereby the at least one indicator which indicates the determined current time in the local time zone also simultaneously indicates a corresponding current world wide standard time.
