The global timepiece (10) comprises a transparent disk (22) arranged overhead the face (14) which comprises a New Day Line (34) extending radially from the center outward to an indice indicating midnight. The disk (22) is operationally connected to a rotatable shaft (38) or other drive mechanism by which it is moving 360° in clockwise direction within 24 hours. The disk (22) comprises an International Date Line indicia (44) and time zone indicia represented by cities or areas or marks representing a time zone geographically located within each corresponding time zone. Two windows (36) for the indication of two successive dates are cut into the face (14). These windows (36) are aligned astride the New Day Line (34). A wheel (35) is arranged beneath these windows (36) and is moving counterclockwise and indicates on its circumferential top area the dates (1 to 31). By this wheel (25), the timepiece shows two successive dates in the windows (36) and which world locations are in which date. |
