It would depend on what one considers Time Zones.

To the military, there are 25 time zones. Alpha-India and Kilo-Zulu

Juliet, Juliet, where for art thou Juliet?

Almost interesting trivial answer....

Well although it is not universally known or recognized, but Juliette is right here. Juliet or Juliette or "J" is a designation for local time. It is not used much for obvious reasons, but when operations were more localized, 1200J meant local noon.
