Convert your strings into ISO 8601 formats. These generally work well in JavaScript Date constructors. Then simply subtract one from the other

var firstTime ="2017-07-21T04:34:21"; 
var timeZone1 = "+01:00"; 
var secondTime = "2017-07-21T04:36:27";     
var timeZone2 = "+01:24";  

const firstDate  = new Date(firstTime + timeZone1)
const secondDate = new Date(secondTime + timeZone2)
console.log('firstDate', firstDate)
console.log('secondDate', secondDate)
console.info('diff', firstDate - secondDate)

you can use moment.js (https://momentjs.com/) for get the current timestamp from different time zone.

But don´t forget : "Time Zone != Offset" https://stackoverflow.com/tags/timezone/info

Another good example: Get timezone difference in hours with moment
