Responding to: ???'s previous message
Stanley,

Software calibration is the way to go. All it requires is to measure the clock that you have built against a known standard ( in America we have NIST via the telephone) for an extended time, let's say 10 hours.

Time factor = Standard time (NIST time)in sec/Clock time in sec

The Time factor is your correction factor.

Corrected Time = Time factor * Clock Time

Erik is correct, the crystal will still be susceptible to temperature variations. But if the clock is always on these temperature variations should be minimized.
