    Elementary is based on Ubuntu, which is based on Debian. The whole family will change your clock unless you do an Expert Install and don't select "Configure Clock". And at the end of the install, when it asks "is your clock set to UCT" you tell it NO (might have changed, but that's what worked for me).

    Try this in a terminal:
    timedatectl set-local-rtc 1
    You may have a readjust your bios clock on reboot, but it'll stay ok afterwards.
