world clock
Global time display
A world clock displays the current time across multiple time zones simultaneously.
Before digital technology, world clocks were large public displays in airports and hotels showing several analog clock faces labeled with major cities.
Now the term usually refers to apps or websites that let you compare times in different locations: I checked the world clock before scheduling the call with Tokyo.
