Thanks! Would the same rules apply if I said : "It's 5p.m. Eastern Standard Time, but what time is it Greenwich Mean Time?"

It sounds good to me. Yes.

Thanks! Just to be sure, it is "...what time is it in Greenwich Mean Time?" without the 'in'?
Is that right?

Another question regarding this:

What time zone are you in/on?

Would that be 'in' this time, since one would never say 'on a zone'?
