World Clock Deluxe can display multiple clocks in a horizontal or vertical palette, in the menu bar and in the Dock, show Coordinated Universal Time and Internet Time, assign labels and colors to clocks, calculate date and time conversions across different time zones and show the current weather all over the world.
What's New
Version 4.8:
73 cities belonging to 36 different countries have been added to the World Clock Deluxe database which now contains over 1,500 cities.
Cities can now have two daylight-saving time periods in the same year. There are countries, in fact, that suspend daylight-saving time during Ramadan and then resume it.
Daylight-saving information for the Gaza Strip, Morocco, Syria, the West Bank, and Western Sahara has been updated. From this year, Morocco and Western Sahara will observe daylight-saving time from the last Sunday in April to the last Sunday in September with the exception of Ramadan (estimated start and end dates for Ramadan in 2012 are July 20 and August 18). Syria anticipated the start of DST from the first Friday in April to the last Friday in March. The Gaza Strip and the West Bank started daylight-saving time together this year, both at midnight on the last Thursday in March.
The geographical coordinates of Port-au-Prince, Haiti and Basse-Terre, Guadeloupe have been corrected, the dissolved Netherlands Antilles have been replaced by CuraƧao and the Caribbean Netherlands, and the Beerenberg volcano in Jan Mayen has been replaced by the Olonkinbyen settlement.
Some minor memory leaks have been eliminated, some minor bugs have been solved, and some minor interface improvements and fixes have been introduced.

I just purchased this. It's a handy tool, and is easier to use and offers more features that I can use than other world clock apps. The only significant improvement I would like to see is a more modern, Snow Leopard-like interface, as the palette appearance is rather plain. I'd also like the option to turn off the dock icon and the menubar icon - currently, I have to choose one, and I'd rather not have either.
There might be a desktop clock in Leopard, but I have as yet been unable to get it to show me more than one timezone at the time. How about you, DNEM41? Any little secrets you want to share with us?
the change to cocoa was cool, but we got : larger (much!) clocks, and a loss of the hidden icon... i'm not sure this was an upgrade...

Not very flashy, but has all the functions you'd expect in a world clock, namely, picking cities and time/date format.
Could use some better UI design though, its not quite up to the standards I've come to expect on OS X. The rotating clock in the Dock is unreadable at any icon size less than huge, and the floating pallette is pretty bland although easy to read (as long as you dont turn transparency on). Just a text printout of city/time in the floating window in a plain box, no analog display or fancy window shapes here.
I don't know if its worth $12, I'll see how it grows on me.
