Please need help with this formula

Watchface Design Expression Help

Hello, I’m trying to make a world time watch face using this ((#Db#+14+24)%24) , I don’t know if this is the correct formula, I’m in UTC - 05;00 time. This only works if I use the 24 HR. format. Also, will this work for everyone else as everyone has different time zone?

You will have to base it off of UTC time. That is the only time standard that is the same worldwide. It will also have to be adjustable so people can set it to the UTC offset they need. Which means you have to have the Pro upgrade to do touch points to control it and the users will have to have the Premium upgrade to use it also. Do a search here in the community for world time watch and you will find several threads about it and how it’s done.

for 12h format you would have to use different formula with %12 instead %24 (and there still would be 0 instead 12h, which does not look like 12h format), but as @mrantisocialguy wrote, that is not necessary and would not work in timezones different from yours.

I think, this is only needed, if people want to show time different from UTC and also from the local time. Otherwise there will only be the two, UTC (which everybody has the same) and local (which watch sets automatically)

So, in other words I would have to publish a face for each time zone or upgrade to pro. It has to be a way to go around that, thanks for your answers.

Like I said, if you only want to display local time and UTC then no pro is needed.
If you want to display some different but fixed zones, still no pro is needed. If you want the other zones customizable, then you first need pro.

As a Non Pro Maker you can use a 24 hrs dial or hand to show a few zones .
See my Personal ( non WFF ) face with my selection of zones .
