Yes it will work just fine. Except that you will need to fugure out twothings 1) what keeps your quartz oscillator on track? All of them have long term drift. How will you track and correct the drift? 2) you will need a reference clock in addition to the PPS that can "number the seconds" NMEA can do that but also so can internet pool servers. Pool servers with a local PPS can work.
