FWIW I seem to remember when I went on USA trips that my phone at the time, a Nokia Tri-Band (can't remember model), would always set itself automatically to the local US time. When I got back to the UK I had to set it back again manually.

The operator should have their base-stations time adjusted it seems. GSM base stations does not need as tight time as CDMA, so there is certainly a reason for why GSM did not start out with timing announcements from the start.
