This is usually for the second time zone.
The rightside of the subdial indicates the AM timezone (from 12:00 PM to 12:00 AM) and thelefside the PM timezone (from 12:00 AM to 12:00 PM)...linked with the GMT hand.

So if you read 10:10 (GMT hour hand) and the little hand on the 9' subdial is on the right side it means 10:10 AM...with the little hand on the left side it means 10:10 PM.
