Description blackst0ne 2016-10-23 07:57:00 UTC 
Digital clock widget show wrong time.

My timezone is Asia/Sakhalin (UTC+11, MSK+8). 

date command in terminal show correct time: Sun Oct 23 18:52:35 +11 2016
But at the same time the digital clock widget placed on my panel shows 20:52 (difference is +2 hours).  

'Adjust Date and Time' window shows correct time. 

It all started just a few releases ago (two or three). 
Before it everything was ok. I changed nothing in time/date.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set timezone to Asia/Sakhalin.
2. Add Digital clock widget.
3. See the wrong time.

Actual Results:  
Digital clock widget shows wrong time (+2 hours forward).

Expected Results:  
Digital clock widget shows correct time (the same as 'date' command shows).

Same here. It should be somehow connected with the recent changes in tzdata.

Looks like the applet has problems with format like this.
I was able to 'fix' it by downgrading tzdata package to 2016d.
