That would be the "one hundred twenty degree west meridian". It passes
through the Northwest Territories and British Columbia in Canada, the states
of Washington, Oregon, and California in the US, the north and south Pacific
Ocean, and the Antarctic continent. It has no special significance.
The line of longitude directly opposite 60 degrees west is 120 degrees east. Opposite longitudes are always 180 degrees apart on the globe.
California has a northern border and an eastern one, but no "northeastern" border. However, the boundary between California and Nevada does appear to follow close to the meridian of 120 degrres west, for about 200 miles.
"240 degrees east of the Prime Meridian" places you at 120 degrees west longitude.
Reno, Nevada.
The maximum degree of latitude is 90 degrees. If you meant 62 degrees north latitude and 120 degrees west longitude: Northwest Territory, Canada.

"240 degrees east of the Prime Meridian" places you at 120 degrees west longitude.
The country at 45 degrees North latitude and 120 degrees West longitude is the United States. This coordinate points to an area located in the state of Oregon in the western part of the country.
If the chronometer reads 8 AM Pacific Standard Time at solar noon, it indicates that your location is 120 degrees west longitude. This discrepancy in time suggests that you are 2 hours away from the Pacific Time Zone (120 degrees west longitude corresponds to a 2-hour time difference from Pacific Time).
