It won't work. You're much too far away from the transmitters.

Someday someone will make one that uses the GPS signals rather than the clock broadcasts but I haven't seen one like that and it would almost certainly have to be a plug-in clock, not battery operated. GPS also has the problem that it doesn't penetrate buildings very well.
