That is apparently what LabVIEW does, when recording true timestamp values. The same file with the same data will show 9:39 on one machine and 10:39 on another, because it is incorporating the timezone with it. When you record a string with the time though, you don't get that benefit. And you won't notice at all unless you cross timezones. Exactly.
