Best overlap: 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM in Prague is 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM in Dubai.
If you set up a recurring sync, 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM in Prague (10:00 AM to 6:00 PM in Dubai) is the natural home for it. Despite the 2-hour difference, an 8-hour overlap keeps things simple and gives both teams breathing room. These times hold for most of the year, but Prague's daylight saving (which Dubai doesn't use) shifts them by an hour twice annually.
