Interesting.  I actually like the original wording better.  For me, "my watch is 6 hours behind UTC" makes it clear that when the Big Ben clock shows tea time (18:00), my watch displays noon (17:00 - 6:00 = 12:00.)

I was too excited to add Alice in Wonderland humor to my post that did not get the math right. :-)

The above should read 18:00 - 6:00 = 12:00, of course. Or was it five o'clock after all?
