Bug Description

When you have multiple cities in different timezones added, the clock app displays the time difference between your current timezone and the city. That's definitely useful, but information on difference against UTC is often needed, too, and currently you have to know what UTC difference your current timezone has to be able to calculate the target difference.

Maybe an option in settings to display "raw" values of UTC+1 etc. could be displayed?

Most people don't know what UTC means. What people really care about is the difference between city A & B in hours. Let's do the heavy lifting for them.
