Why not use one of the radio clock services ? AFAIK they do daylight saving automatically.

My Panasonic VCR ~$80 has "automatic time and date" so it can't be very costly.

The VCR will get its timecode from the TV broadcast.

I don't think that's what Steve was thinking of

Over here, it's called "MSF" and broadcast on 60kHz from Rugby, I think.
You can buy wall clocks, etc, that sync to it - from twenty quid or so.
It's quite fun watching an analogue clock automatically adjust itself for daylight saving!! ;-)

No doubt you have something similar over there.
