3 questions:

1) Do you have the date, time, and timezone correctly set under MacOS?
2) Do you have "Auto-set GMT Bias" selected in the Booter's Booting
   Options dialog?
3) Is /etc/localtime a copy of or point to the proper timezone file under
   NetBSD?

Although NetBSD/mac68k is notorious for losing clock interrupts (and thus
clock time), it should be quite capable of keeping proper time until after
boot.  One of the 3 items above is probably incorrectly configured.

I hope this helps.

Later.
