I forgot to include the screenshot:

 Notice that I have set:
 [x] Automatic date and time (Use network-provided time)
 [x] Automatic time zone (Use network-provided time zone)

I don't know where the clock app gets its time and time zone from, but it
would seem to me it would just need to get it from the system clock and
system location, which can be provided by the carrier, it seems.
