Reading the manual, it takes the date and time from the CLI (Calling Line Identity) that comes from the exchange if a call is missed.

Re: Bang & Olufsen Beocom 2500

I used to have a cordless land line phone that had a watch function on the display, that automatically set itself on receipt of an incoming call (which includes a time/date stamp along with the number information). There was no way to set the time by hand, except to go to another phone and call it!

If there is no continuously-updated watch display on your phone, it probably is just saving the static timestamps from the CLI information packet. That information is coming from the telephone exchange, so can be presumed correct.

All times are GMT +1. The time now is 10:00 pm.
