I discovered that /etc/timezone file is missing which is unusual. After creating /etc/timezone and adding my local time zone the time was correct. I reproduced clean installation of 13.2 in GNOME Boxes and I confirm that /etc/timezone is missing again and local time in GNOME top bar is wrong again.
