I just honked mine up. Too early to tell if there’s a real difference. The clock was still a little cold from sitting in my car.

Congratulations on your new clock! Master clocks like this (Oven-stabilized) required 15-30 minutes for their oven-stabilized modules to
reach steady state operation and be ready to provide a quality sync at 10 Mhz. 15 minutes is a good norm though you will notice:
- this is a brand new clock; its power supply, etc...requires break-in just like any audio device, leave it on everyday,...it will get better with time
- each time you power the system and/or the clock off, you should power up the clock first, let it stabilize for 15 minutes (my own metric) and
then power on the unit that is meant to be sync'ed to the clock....
- when powering down your system (vacation, maintenance, etc...), the clock is the last thing to get turned off....
When you powered on the clock cold recently, if you then turned on your gear before the clock had warmed up and reached steady-state,
I'd suggest that you should turn off the unit you have slaved to the clock and then power it back on to get a clean steady-state sync with
your clock after it has reached optimal operating parameters internally...
This is not meant to be a rule book so to speak; just what I have found to work best in the past with an Esoteric G-0s, Esoteric G-03x and
3 more recent clocks from Cybershaft....
