The clock/watch argument in the age of GPS, network and cellular time

Neither GPS signals nor the 60 kHz WWVB signal are receivable inside my
apartment (yes, I tried).  I briefly looked into a wall clock that used
an Ethernet connection to a NTP time server and had the look of what I
wanted but the cost of the clock approached the cost of the computer
that it would talk to.

Back to not-all-that-obsolete quartz regulated clocks and watches that
need readjustment from time to time.  That's where the analog WWV signal
is essential.
