Hi, @Carlyc76 , GMT is the zone, UTC is the time against which all zones are checked.  In the winter in the United Kingdom GMT and UTC are exactly the same.  In the summer the time in the UK is UTC + 1 because we put the clocks forward, one hour ahead of GMT. Basically GMT=UTC.

 

The Flex 2, of course, has no watch face, so you will be checking your time on your app.  To change the time zone go to the account screen (click the small person icon or picture top left on opening screen).  On the account screen scroll down to “app settings” where you will find time zone.  This can be set so the app automatically detects your location (recommended), or, when turned off, you can set manually.  Try toggling to off, and as you seem to be in the UK, make sure your app is set to London. 

I hope this helps.  Welcome to the forums!
