What is ZULU TIME?![]() The term "Zulu Time" refers to time kept on the Greenwich meridian (longitude zero), five hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time. Zulu Time is used as the standard for international reference of time in communications, military, aviation, maritime and other activities that cross time zones. Times written in military time (24 hour format) are four digits, such as, 1830Z with the Zulu suffix. This would be 6:30 pm in the commonly used timekeeping notation. The official name for the time at longitude zero is Coordinated Universal Time or UTC. This time zone had previously been called Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) but was replaced with UTC in 1972 as the official world time standard changed. While GMT is based on Earth's rotation and celestial measurements, UTC is a based on cesium-beam atomic clocks. The two clocks are rarely more than a second apart as leap seconds are applied to UTC. On the Torgoen T5 Collection, the watch has an extra 4th hand (the red hand on the sample watch above) and that hand shows the "Zulu Time" or, if the wearer prefers, a 2nd Time Zone. |
Pilots often need a watch that will always display Universal Coordinated Time (also referred to as Zulu time). Or many pilots prefer to have their watch display both their home time and their destination time, if it is in a different time zone.
We have discovered that many of our clients who are not pilots still want the 2nd time zone feature. With so many of our soldiers now serving in Iraq, many people want a watch that can display both the local time and the time where there friends or relatives live (or serve). We ship many of these strong, tough and durable watches to members of our Armed Services in the Middle East and around the world.
The T5 Collection of watches is unusually tough, durable and easy to read. The watches are made of stainless steel and have your choice of solid stainless steel bracelets or fine leather straps. The T5 Series watches are water resistant to 100 meters below sea level. The crystals are hardened mineral glass that will resist scratches. The movements are highly accurate Swiss movements of the finest quality, built to withstand shock. This is a fine timekeeping instrument that will serve you for a lifetime.
