About Juliett
What is Juliett time?
Juliett (J) means local time: whatever the clock reads where the observer is. It has no fixed offset, which is why it is not one of the 25 numbered zones.
Why is J skipped in the time zone list?
Every other letter is tied to a fixed offset from UTC. J was left free so it can stand for "local time" anywhere.
