maatuska's clock doesn't seem to be or have been off recently, judging from system logs.

From reading doctor/consensus_health_checker.py it seems like

clock_skew, on which the warning about system clock being off is based, assumes that the time it takes between request being sent and authority composing a reply header is zero.

If that's true it follows that with a correct system clock on the authority, the warning indicates how much time was spent between doctor sending the request and the authority handling it.
