HI,

It appears that you have misunderstood the definition of the DataAndTime
textual convention. Here is the definition from RFC 2579:
  DateAndTime ::= TEXTUAL-CONVENTION
    DISPLAY-HINT "2d-1d-1d,1d:1d:1d.1d,1a1d:1d"
    STATUS       current
    DESCRIPTION
            "A date-time specification.

            field  octets  contents                  range
            -----  ------  --------                  -----
              1      1-2   year*                     0..65536
              2       3    month                     1..12
              3       4    day                       1..31
              4       5    hour                      0..23
              5       6    minutes                   0..59
              6       7    seconds                   0..60
                           (use 60 for leap-second)
              7       8    deci-seconds              0..9
              8       9    direction from UTC        '+' / '-'
              9      10    hours from UTC*           0..13
             10      11    minutes from UTC          0..59

            * Notes:
            - the value of year is in network-byte order
            - daylight saving time in New Zealand is +13

            For example, Tuesday May 26, 1992 at 1:30:15 PM EDT would be
            displayed as:

                             1992-5-26,13:30:15.0,-4:0

            Note that if only local time is known, then timezone
            information (fields 8-10) is not present."
    SYNTAX       OCTET STRING (SIZE (8 | 11))


The value of an item with data type DateAndTime is a binary
string and NOT a displayable string. The value of the 
DISPLAY-HINT clause tells you how to decode the binary
string to construct a displayable value. It appears that
the DESCRIPTION clause is incomplete in that it should have
said that the value of
  0x07C8 05 1a 0d 1e 0e 00 2d 04 00 (i put in spaces to show the fields)
or without spaces:
  0x07C8051a0d1e0e002d0400 (length of 11)
