Yes your solution looks fine, you can improve performance by just using the passed param to set the SECS var like this:

Code:
tape=$1

if [ $# -eg 2 ]
then
    SECS=$(date -d "$2" +%s)
else
    SECS=$(date -d "$2/$3 ${4:-00}:${5:-00}" +%s)
fi

cd /mnt/data1/SEGD/tape"$tape"

for file in *.segd
do
    let SECS=SECS+60
    touch -t $(date -d @$SECS +%Y%m%d%H%M) "$file"
done

Usage:

fix_timestamps tape datestr
fix_timestamps tape month day [hour [min]]>

eg:
Code:
fix_timestamps 7593 02 08
fix_timestamps 7590 02 08 14 51
fix_timestamps 7592 "last tuesday"
fix_timestamps 7592 "today -3 days"
fix_timestamps 7592 "Feb 16 2008"
