read 'man date' and pay attention to the usage that looks like this:

date [-u|--utc|--universal] [MMDDhhmm[[CC]YY][.ss]]

minimally you could get away with:

date MMDDhhmmCCYY

ie. date 032119512003 sets Mar 21 7:51pm 2003

also have a look at 'man hwclock' which syncs the system date/time with the
hardware date/time.
