On the left side, you can set the day of the month by simply clicking on it in the calendar. You change the month and year by clicking on it and using the up/down arrows to the right or the cursor keys on your keyboard.

Similarly, you set the time. There are two modes for the clock:

Local Time to display your local time.
GMT to display Greenwich Mean Time.

Timezone

Simply find and choose your location from the drop-down menu and the list of cities and press Set Time Zone to set your zone.

Revert brings back the settings that were active when you started the Time preferences.
