Cape Town keeps time using the Africa/Johannesburg zone from the global time zone database. That means the clock above always reflects whatever rule is in force today — including the exact weekend the clocks change, if this region shifts them at all.
Because Cape Town does not shift its clocks, the difference between it and cities that do will change twice a year — without anything changing here.
