Does the button you see rotate slightly both clockwise and anti-clockwise?
This is how the time is set in some vw's. |

The button only protrudes slightly from the bottom of the speedo with very little grip it pushes in and that resets the service data but i will try twisting it with grips in the morning but it won't go by hand I have a 3 seies bmw and it has a rotating button for the clock but this one has a lot of people baffled |

Hi Blueshoes - Welcome to the forum
I don't know if this will help but...... Some Polo dash units were made to look like two seperate pods with each clock having 8 screws/plastic rivets arranged around the edge If your's is like this - If you look carefully at the plastic rivets in the tachometer surround, you'll notice two (at the 5 and 7 o'clock positions) are actually buttons. Push in with something appropriate (Toothpick etc) to set the time. Hope this is useful Bob |
