If it wasn't for the $100 price point, I have exactly this in my
office right now: Our product displays the time on 7-segment LEDs.
However, our cost is somewhat more than $100 since we have an OCXO,
a TCXO, a GPS receiver, an ARM and an FPGA plus lots of sheet metal
and slots in the back for distribution modules.
