NSDatePicker takes an NSDate as its value. When you change the system timezone, that value does not change. It is still the same NSDate with the same value describing the same point in time.
But because the system timezone has changed, the formatted string equivalent has changed to match. So your choice is: how do you want to handle the timezone change? A) Generate a new NSDate instance that once formatted gives the appearance of the formatted string not having changed. To do this you'll need to pick up on the notification of system timezone change and then adjust all such dates yourself B) Ignore the change of system timezone for your date picker. Thus the date when formatted will continue to look the same. This should be pretty easy. When creating the date picker, assign it a timezone to use rather than accepting the default.
