My original idea was to have 12 noon equate to the sun's highest position in
the sky at my locality, and remain so reliably throughout the year.

There is obviously some very specialized talent in this group, and I would
have trouble following all the suggestions so far. I hope one of the
outcomes of this thread will be a timepiece that a moderately skilled
electronics hobbyist can replicate. For example, I can program PIC's and
build circuits, but not write code. Anything electromechanical is fine. 

A one-off solution created in a well-equipped lab as a curiosity piece would
probably not be within my resources. I had originally imagined something
like a PIC coded to deliver modified pulses to a wall clock module. Is it
possible to arrive at anything close to that level of simplicity? For my
use, this was not intended to be a research grade instrument.
