The utility model relates to a clock capable of displaying universal times. The utility model is characterized in that a reversing gear is additionally arranged between a minute wheel and an hour wheel of an ordinary pointer clock. At the same time, the number of teeth of the minute wheel and the hour wheel are twice increased than the numbers of an ordinary clock. Thus, a minute hand clockwise run a round, an hour hand anticlockwise run a round. At the same time, the hour hand forms an hour hand disc according to the marks of time zones. Therefore, the universal clock can simultaneously display the local times of the same time in 24-hour zones. The operation is very convenient.
