Also worth noting is that in windows 10 you can add two additional clocks to the main one. Very helpful when you are usually focused on just a few timezones in particular.
As I keep saying, we'll all move to UTC in 1-3 decades.
How is that going to help anything? This is an issue with human circadian rhythms, not with conventions of keeping time.

Nothing else. But that's enough.
This very simple tool helps: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meeting.html It rocks with Daylight Saving time transitions too (UK one coming up soon)
It's good to check, because different places switch to and from daylight savings time on different dates, so you're not always the same number of hours apart during the transition! I've missed meetings before because of that: "I was there, where were you?" "I was there too! Where were YOU?"

I thought Warsaw was the last country with a non-hourly time zone, UTC+01:24, which they wisely abandoned ages ago, in 1915. Why on Earth would Tehran use such an arbitrary time zone offset? At least they're off by a half hour, instead of 24 minutes. But what possible reason could there be to do something like that, anyway? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTC%2B01:24 >On 5 August 1915, Warsaw switched to Central Europe…
You should look up Nepal if you want to be really ticked off.

I'd link to JWZ's blog where I read about this, but he blocks HN referrals.
When scheduling events, it will show times in the time zones that you have added under World Clock in settings.
The world clock will display on your left sidebar.
