Around 17 people live in Panamá, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Panamá runs on America/Mexico_City, which puts the city UTC −6 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
