It shows the time at the cell tower it's connected to. If your carrier is on the job, it'll show the correct time to within a second or two at the worst all the time. (Since the tower should be using GPS time, it should be correct to within a few millionths of a second at worst [GPS time being the time at the NIST's standard clock, which is one of the clocks in the world that define what time it is], but most carriers are sloppy and allow a second or two of error.) The only problem is being right at the edge of a timezone, and being connected to a tower on the other side of the line - then you'll see the time on the other side of the line. But people who live in such places are familiar with the problem.
