You win. Can't do better than that, I'd say.
You may want to look into possibilities of securing even shorter domain name, i.e. ideally it would be http://time.in/London
Lots of possibilities there: querytime.in, gettime.in, localtime.in, thetime.in. Godaddy actually offers .in domains. If I were OP I'd just register then all, and let the ones die that friends and family don't like.
either go super short or go memorable. I think whatsthetime.in works because its literally what you'd ask.
jacktheticker, some variation of coo coo clock (cucuclock?), stophammertime, zonedrone, ticktockclock, ticktocktime, hourhand, hourglassfast, sundial, moondial,
Chron Jeremy -- has a built in mascot. a hedgehog
Didn't check them for availability at all, but that's a quick brainstorm...

You may want to see how Yandex did it: http://time.yandex.ru
There are links for switching between analog and digital clock on top of the page.
I've found this service by pure accident. Once I've needed to know what time is it now in some other city and I thought "hasn't Yandex made a service for this already?" It turned out, they did!
IMO, that's the ideal version of this service. But if you invented something better (the details you mentioned) - more power to you!

One other service I discovered the similar way is http://mirror.yandex.ru - it turned out that they maintain a comprehensive mirror of open source software, might be useful if you live in Russia; I actually get downloads at higher speeds because Yandex has special agreement with my ISP (Peterstar).
timezo.ne is available.
All very good submissions! No real winner yet thought, and not all are available domain names.

I'm looking for a fun and remarkable (domain-)name for this app. Something around clocks, times, dates, timezones, different locations, etc.
I thought it would be cool to ask you guys as a kind of experiment, and hopefully something great will come along. So HN, could you help me out?
