BRG Worldview Time Zone Clocks: The Most Versatile World Clock Display Available
By BRG Precision Products | June 23, 2026 | Time Zone Clocks
What if your time zone clock could do far more than just display time? What if it could show a live, animated world map with real-time sun and shadow overlay, play NASA space videos between briefings, alert your team with a countdown timer, display your agency’s seal, and let you completely redesign the layout — all without calling a technician or ordering new hardware?
That is exactly what the BRG Worldview Time Zone Clock delivers. It is the most feature-rich, configurable world clock display on the market today, and it is available to U.S. government agencies through BRG’s GSA Multiple Award Schedule contract # 47QSMS26D002K.
Here is a deep look at what makes the Worldview series unlike anything else in its category.
What Is the BRG Worldview Time Zone Clock?
The BRG Worldview is a family of HD multimedia time zone displays housed in precision-machined aluminum frames. Each unit contains one, two, or three 32-inch (diagonal) high-definition LCD monitors, all integrated into a single seamless assembly that mounts directly to the wall.
Unlike conventional LED time zone clocks that display only digits and fixed zone labels, the Worldview combines time zone data with a fully interactive HD multimedia platform. The result is a display that can serve as a world clock, an operations room focal point, a media player, a countdown timer, a news ticker, and a live world map — simultaneously, on a single screen or across multiple panels.
There are 10 basic display sizes with thousands of layout variations and configurations. Every Worldview unit ships with all available display templates already included, and every template can be customized or replaced at any time using simple drag-and-drop tools.
The Live World Map: More Than a Background
The centerpiece feature of the Worldview series is its live, continuously moving world map. This is not a static graphic — it is a fully dynamic, real-time Earth display with capabilities that include:
- Real-time sun and shadow (day/night) overlay — The illuminated and dark regions of the Earth update in real time, showing exactly where daylight is at this moment anywhere on the planet.
- Satellite position tracking — Active satellite positions are displayed on the map in real time.
- City lights at night — When a region enters nighttime, city lights illuminate the map, making it visually stunning and operationally informative.
- Sun and moon position display — The position of the sun and moon are shown on the map at all times.
- Points of interest labels — Custom geographic labels can be placed on the map for operationally relevant locations.
- Active analog clocks on the map — For map-enabled configurations, active analog clock faces for each time zone appear at the top of the map display.
- Pan and zoom — The world map can be panned and zoomed to focus on a specific region or country. The zoom position is automatically saved and maintained through power cycles, so the map always returns to your preferred view.
- Google Earth integration — Google Earth can be scheduled to display world imagery periodically, at specific times, on specific days of the week, or for any duration you specify.
The Worldview model HD32X1C08, for example, pairs a continuously moving world map with day/night overlay alongside four time zones and a full date line on a single 32-inch display (17.5”H × 29.0”W). Model HD32X1C48 goes further, featuring a slowly rotating Earth with city lights visible at night.
HD Video Playback: NASA, Space Station, and Custom Media
The Worldview is built around a professional HD Multimedia Player that treats video as a first-class display element alongside time zones. What comes included out of the box is remarkable:
- Hundreds of NASA Earth and space videos — Imagery of Earth captured from the International Space Station, near and deep space photography from the Hubble Space Telescope, and imagery from the James Webb Space Telescope are all included and ready to display.
- Scenic outdoor video library — Hundreds of scenic outdoor videos are included for ambient display purposes.
- Picture-in-Picture (PIP) support — Up to six videos can play simultaneously on the moving map using Picture-in-Picture mode, managed through the program schedule software.
- Interleaved map and video scheduling — The live world map can be inter-mingled with video content at regular intervals using the internal media scheduler, so the display automatically alternates between the live map and selected videos on a schedule you define.
- Custom video support — Your own video files can be added at any time using the USB socket on the left side of the display. Model HD32X1C13 and HD32X1C14, for example, feature continuous American flag video playback alongside time zone data.
- Fully automatic playback — The multimedia player will find and play media files automatically without any user input. Videos continuously loop and repeat.
- Most common multimedia formats supported — No proprietary format conversions required.
Drag-and-Drop Layout Customization: Redesign It Yourself, Anytime
Most time zone clocks are static. If you need a different layout, you order a different clock. The Worldview is fundamentally different: every layout is fully user-configurable, and every configuration can be saved, named, and recalled.
Using the included wireless touchpad keyboard (or wired keyboard for SCIF models), any authorized user can:
- Drag and drop any display element — Time zone panels, the world map, video windows, logos, date lines, message tickers, and countdown timers can all be repositioned on screen freely.
- Resize any element — Zone display size and label size are individually configurable. Make your Zulu time zone larger than the rest to emphasize it.
- Create entirely new templates from scratch — Not limited to modifying existing configurations. You can build a brand new layout from a blank screen.
- Save configurations for later use — Every layout you create can be saved and recalled at any time. Multiple saved configurations can be maintained simultaneously.
- Switch between saved configurations instantly — Operations rooms that need different displays for different situations can switch between named configurations on the fly.
- Use macros for dynamic labels — Location label macros can automatically insert the current time, date, Julian date, day of week, and other dynamic data directly into zone name labels.
- Use ChatGPT AI to look up time zone rules — The Worldview software can use ChatGPT AI to obtain time display rules for any location in the world, making time zone configuration faster and more accurate.
User-Changeable Colors: 8 Options, Any Zone, Any Time
Every Worldview model supports user-changeable zone colors with eight choices: Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Orange, Magenta, Cyan, or White. Colors can be applied to any individual zone or all zones at once, and can be changed at any time using the remote control or keyboard — no tools, no technician, no downtime.
This capability is operationally meaningful. Common use cases include:
- Displaying Zulu/UTC time in a distinct color so it stands out immediately from local time zones.
- Highlighting a zone of interest — such as a theater of operations or a partner facility — in a high-visibility color like yellow or white.
- Color-coding by region — CONUS zones in one color, OCONUS in another.
- Blinking zone alerts — Model HD32X1C15 supports blinking zones to draw immediate visual attention to a specific location during time-sensitive operations.
Countdown Timer and Long Duration Timer
The Worldview includes a built-in Long Duration Timer that can be configured as a countdown or count-up display and added to any screen layout as a dedicated display element. This makes the Worldview suitable for facilities that need to track time remaining to a mission event, an exercise start, a scheduled briefing, a launch window, or a shift change — all without requiring separate hardware.
The timer display size and position on screen are fully configurable, and the timer element can coexist on screen alongside active time zone clocks, the world map, and video content simultaneously.
Message Tickers and Information Feeds
Up to four simultaneous message tickers can run across the bottom or sides of any Worldview display. Tickers can pull from:
- Live news and information network feeds
- Local text files on the network
- Custom operational messages entered via the remote control
Model HD32X1C16 and HD32X1C18 come pre-configured with moving text displays integrated directly into the layout alongside time zone data and date information.
Government Logos, Seals, and Custom Graphics
The Worldview ships with an extensive library of government logos and seals pre-loaded and ready to place on any display. Military branch insignia, federal agency seals, and department logos can be positioned anywhere on screen using the drag-and-drop interface.
Custom graphics from your organization can be added at any time via USB. Models such as HD32X1C02 (single logo, center top), HD32X2C24 (two logo positions), and HD32X1C11 (five logo positions at the bottom of the map display) provide dedicated logo zones built into the pre-configured template.
SCIF-Ready: Designed for Secure Locations
Every Worldview model is available in a SCIF (Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility) configuration with all radios removed. SCIF models use a wired keyboard instead of the standard wireless touchpad for configuration. No Wi-Fi, no Bluetooth, no wireless signals of any kind.
This makes the Worldview one of the very few HD multimedia time zone displays on the market that can be legally installed and operated in classified environments without a waiver or modification. Wi-Fi configurations are also available for standard facilities.
Display Sizes and Multi-Monitor Configurations
The Worldview series is available in three monitor sizes — 22-inch, 32-inch, and 43-inch — each offered in multiple monitor count configurations, all housed in a single continuous precision-machined aluminum frame. This gives you 10 basic frame configurations with thousands of layout variations to choose from.
22-Inch Worldview Models — 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 Monitors
The 22-inch series offers the greatest flexibility in monitor count, available in one through five monitor configurations in a single frame. This makes it ideal for installations where wall width is a factor but you still need to display many time zones across a wide span. The five-monitor 22-inch configuration (model series HD22X5) delivers an impressive panoramic display wall in a slim, unified aluminum housing. Other 22-inch configurations include:
- HD22X1 — Single 22” monitor. Compact footprint, full Worldview feature set.
- HD22X2 — Two 22” monitors in one frame.
- HD22X3 — Three 22” monitors in one frame.
- HD22X4 — Four 22” monitors in one frame. Supports up to 96 time zones through page flipping.
- HD22X5 — Five 22” monitors in one frame. Maximum zone count and visual impact in the 22” series.
32-Inch Worldview Models — 1, 2, or 3 Monitors
The 32-inch series is BRG’s most popular Worldview configuration, offering the best balance of screen real estate, readability at distance, and wall footprint. Available in one, two, or three monitor configurations:
- HD32X1 — Single 32” monitor — 17.5”H × 29.0”W × 3.25”D. Models C01 through C52 cover 2 to 9 simultaneous time zones in dozens of pre-configured layouts.
- HD32X2 — Two 32” monitors — 17.5”H × 57.0”W × 3.25”D. Models C20 through C24 support 2 to 10 zones with logo, map, and date options.
- HD32X3 — Three 32” monitors — 17.5”H × 85.5”W × 3.25”D. Models C25 through C29 support 2 to 12 zones with moving map and full media player integration.
43-Inch Worldview Models — 1 or 2 Monitors
The 43-inch series delivers BRG’s largest individual display panels, providing maximum visibility in large operations rooms, hangars, auditoriums, and command centers where viewing distances exceed 75 feet. Available in single or dual monitor configurations:
- HD43X1 — Single 43” monitor. The largest single-panel Worldview display, combining full HD multimedia capabilities with commanding screen size.
- HD43X2 — Two 43” monitors in a single aluminum frame. Maximum display width and zone coverage in the Worldview family.
All Worldview models across all three screen sizes can be mounted either horizontally or vertically. Fonts can be switched between Standard and Retro styles at any time, and because page flipping has no practical zone limit, even a single-monitor unit can cycle through dozens of locations automatically. Contact BRG to confirm current dimensions and available configurations for the 22” and 43” series.
Sunrise, Sunset, and Julian Date Displays
For operationally sensitive timekeeping, the Worldview supports Sunrise and Sunset time displays for any configured location — critical information for aviation, military operations, search and rescue, and field planning. Model HD32X1C19 comes pre-configured with a five-zone layout that includes both a full date line and Sunrise/Sunset times alongside the standard time zone display.
Julian Date (day of the year, 001–366) is also available as a standard display element on any Worldview configuration, and appears alongside standard calendar date, day, month, and four-digit year on date-line equipped models.
