That output isn't very useful. This would be more useful:
fn dates { date; date `{cat /dev/rtc} }
dates; cat /dev/rtc>/dev/time; dates; sleep 60; dates; sleep 60; dates
I suspect that the issue is that your clock is being synchronized to an ntp
server which has a different time from your real time clock.
