Pretoria clocks, offsets and daylight saving
Local time here is SAST, which sits 2 hours ahead of UTC, written UTC+02:00. The canonical zone name is Africa/Johannesburg, and that is what to pick from a time zone dropdown.
No seasonal adjustment applies in Pretoria — UTC+02:00 is constant, which is worth remembering when a partner city moves its clocks twice a year.
