BST and MST examples

These examples always use BST (UTC+1) and MST (UTC-7). They stay the same when you change the date or time above. The selected conversion may differ when daylight saving time applies.

BST is 8 hours ahead of MST.

Most of Arizona stays on MST (UTC-7) all year. Places such as Denver use MDT (UTC-6) during daylight saving time, one hour later. For daylight-time examples, use BST to MDT.

How the time difference changes

For most of the year, BST is 7 hours ahead of MDT. From Nov 1, 2026 to Mar 14, 2027, GMT is 7 hours ahead of MST. From Mar 14 to Mar 28, 2027, and from Oct 31 to Nov 7, 2027, GMT is 6 hours ahead of MDT.

For most of the year, working hours of 9:00 am to 6:00 pm in BST correspond to 2:00 am to 11:00 am in MDT. At other times of the year, working hours of 9:00 am to 6:00 pm in GMT correspond to 2:00 am to 11:00 am in MST or working hours of 9:00 am to 6:00 pm in GMT correspond to 3:00 am to 12:00 pm in MDT.For most of the year, working hours of 09:00 to 18:00 in BST correspond to 02:00 to 11:00 in MDT. At other times of the year, working hours of 09:00 to 18:00 in GMT correspond to 02:00 to 11:00 in MST or working hours of 09:00 to 18:00 in GMT correspond to 03:00 to 12:00 in MDT.

Compare BST time with MST time, including current local time, UTC offsets, time difference, daylight saving changes, working hours, and shareable meeting times.

Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) originally referred to the mean solar time at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London. It is now often used to refer to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) when this is viewed as a time zone, and in casual use the two are the same. In the military, GMT is known as Zulu time. Greenwich Mean Time was the same as Universal Time (UT), a standard astronomical concept used in many technical fields, until the introduction of UTC in 1972.
