Bug Description

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open System Settings
2. Open the Time & Date panel
3. Set 'Set the time and date:' to 'Manually'
4. Tap on the date and time label and set the date and time to something in the future (a few months ahead)
5. Go back and wait for the time indicator to update
6. Set 'Set the time and date:' to Automatically
7. Go back and wait for the time indicator to update again

Expected result:

The indicator reverts back to the previous time

Actual result:

The indicator never updates the time until the device is rebooted
