Had a similar problem with an after-market radio....

On your luch hour go out to the bus.  At exactly 11:59 disconnect the
battery.  At exactly 12:00 reconnect the battery.  Most clocks "start" at
12:00 when power is applied so now your time should be correct  8-)

BTW, this works on some VCR's too!
