With any robot clock you must maintain
synchronization as often as possible and
your quartz crystal should be both calibrated
and oven controlled at some temp greater or lower
then will ever be experienced
at its location.
Most military oscillators are oven controlled
about 140deg fahrenheit which keeps it above
the hottest days.
