How can one modify the wrong time zone in a DateObject, without a conversion? Can one manipulate the TimeZone directly without having the numerical value of the time changing?

do1 = DateObject[3155673600]
do1 /. (TimeZone -> _) :> (TimeZone -> 12)
Observe that GMT-8 has become GMT+12. I believe this is what you want?
A different effect:
DateObject[do1, TimeZone -> 12]
00:00:00 has become 20:00:00 here.
