My understanding (and I could be wrong) is that one could derive 'stellar' time from a start sight/fix on polaris or another well tracked celestial object. I was once told that early editions of Bowditch provided the process (for the moon I was told) although one of the relatively old edition's that I have doesn't provide it.
My previous answer mentioned precision, of course, not accuracy. And the error I mentioned was not the error in GPS which places the zero degree meridian some 102m east of Greenwich!
