Best time to meet between San Francisco and Beijing

For a call that suits both sides, look at 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM in San Francisco / 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM in Beijing. Since Beijing is 15 hours ahead of San Francisco, the overlap is narrow (about 1 hour); a single, well-protected slot beats hunting for time each week. Heads up on dates: Beijing will show the next day relative to San Francisco when you meet. Remember that San Francisco shifts for daylight saving and Beijing doesn't, so recalculate the overlap after each clock change.
