Add & Change World Clocks on Apple Watch

Managing World Clocks on Your Apple Watch

Upon initial setup of your Apple Watch, you might find a pre-selected set of world clocks displayed. The process of modifying these world clocks, however, isn’t directly handled on the watch itself.

Adjusting, adding, or removing world clocks on your Apple Watch requires utilizing the Clock app on your paired iPhone. Despite seeming straightforward, these changes must be implemented through the iPhone interface.

Viewing Existing World Clocks

The World Clock app on your Apple Watch currently shows clocks for Cupertino and New York in this example. The specific cities displayed will vary depending on your initial configuration.

Let's proceed to modify the displayed world clocks, ensuring the changes are reflected within your Apple Watch’s World Clock application.

Editing World Clocks via iPhone
