Ever-so-slightly less clunky would be:
NSDate *date = [myManagedThing valueForKey:@"myDate"];
NSCalendarDate *realDate = [date dateWithCalendarFormat:(format) timeZone:(timeZone)];
(See NSDate dateWithCalendarFormat:timeZone: )
You're still making an extra date for conversion, but at least you're not going all the way out to a String and back.
