I'd want the ability to manually set the time, or point it at an NTP server of my choosing.

OP here, for simplicity, my design allows for timezone selection but for user simplicity, the time server is not selectable. I think your suggestions is quite valid for many of the HN readers, but not for that audience I'm targeting.

thanks for your comment!

It's valid to future proof your clock so it will be useable in the future.

I agree. I’m working on a manually setting time option if no WiFi is available.
