It doesn't affect the general magnitude conclusions by Bruce, but as long as we are making corrections, my calculator seems to think 60 * 60 * 24 * 12 = 1036800 seconds in 12 days, not 1024800. That does come out to 115.7 days for 1 sec error. Maybe the 12-day number was a typo?

12 days is 1024800 s ie just over 1 million seconds so a frequency offset of 0.1ppm results in a time error of ~ 0.1s not 1s.
1sec error would occur in just under 116 days,

Hi

If you take a look down in the fine print on the OCXO spec, the aging rate
is 100 ppb / year in the first year. If you are off by 0.1 ppm (100 ppb)
your clock will gain a second in less than 12 days.
