Wow.  So, when I tried again 13 minutes later, the clock was already 5
minutes behind.  Apparently the speed isn't consistent.

It figured out the correct time again about 30 seconds later, but it
seems the onboard clock might be way off without help from the network
(cell or wifi).

Title:
  Clock out of sync on resume from suspend

Status in The Date and Time Indicator:
  New
Status in The Unity 8 shell:
  New
Status in “indicator-datetime” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When the device is resumed by pressing the power button and the device
  is not connected over USB the clock is out of sync

  You need another system to compare the time to verify this bug report,
  and make sure both clocks are in sync.

  TEST CASE
  1. Unplug the device from its USB cable
  2. Press the power button to switch to suspend mode or wait until it goes to suspend
  3. Wait 2 or more minutes
  4. Press the power button again to resume the device
  5. Compare the time on the greeter and indicator with the time on the other system

  EXPECTED RESULT
  Clocks are in sync

  ACTUAL RESULT
  Time on the device is behind by several minutes. 

  The use case are people who use their device as a watch. You usually
  resume it, check the time, suspend it.
