The original poster didn't tell us which radio, so I'm not sure how much
I care.
The clock in my KX3 works fine, and I can use the KX3 receiver to tune
in WWV (or any other time service around the world).
The typical battery powered "atomic clock" only checks the time service
every 4 to 6 hours. Depending on where you live (including the RF
environment) it may only sync every couple of days.
GPS will go from off to having the time in a minute or two, and as
someone else noted, cell phones work well too (the cellular network gets
time from GPS).
Personally, I use my computer clock, which syncs frequently via NTP.

Given the tiny size of "atomic clock" / WWVB devices ... as in wrist
watches ... it would seem one could be integrated into both the K3 and
KX3 and make the clock actually usable.
