[time-nuts] US New Year countdown - accurate?

[Peter Gottlieb]

You expect *anything* to be accurate on Fox? :-D

I recently read an article about how the new "thing" is to have ever larger 
wrist watches.  Some new ones are 2.5 inches diameter.  Seems like an 
opportunity to me, get something on your wrist that has some real serious 
accuracy.  What would be best, a Rb or a GPSDO driven one?
