<p>A time counting assembly with a display for world time zones comprised of a power source (1), a second counter (2), a minute counter (3), an hour counter (4), and a time zone display (5) for displaying a correct time over a faceplate (53). The user stirs the time zone adjustable ring (52) with the hand to align a first landmark of a local time zone with a fixed point and then calibrates the time counting assembly in accordance with the local time, and then stirs the time zone adjustable ring (52) with the hand to align a second landmark of another locating time zone with the fixed point such that the inner gear ring (522) moves the planetary idle gear set and the planetary base wheel to shift engagement of the engaging hooks (56) in the ratchet holes (523), and the front hour wheel (41) is rotated on the planetary base wheel with a planetary movement along the minute wheel set (32) to cause rotation of a meshed hour wheel (42) so as to turn a hour hand (43) to the time in accordance with the time zone corresponding to the second landmark. The direct time zone adjustment design greatly reduces the thickness of the assembly so that the time counting assembly is usable in a watch or low-profile timer while maintaining world time zone display and adjustable functions, and providing a modularized design function for ultra-thin time recording device.</p> |
