I did see a comparison of clock specifications on Computer Audiophile a while back, the best was the Sforzato PMC-01 BVA clock. So not just a thing of beauty, it performs too.

It is interesting to compare the Sforzato PMC-01 BVA ($33k) specifications to those for the Mutec REF10 (Euro 3.5k)
Sforzato Phase noise:
1Hz -118dBc/Hz
10Hz -137dBc/Hz
100Hz -143dBc/Hz
Calculated RMS phase jitter 10Hz - 100Hz = 34fs
Mutec REF 10 Phase noise
1Hz -116dBc/Hz
10Hz -142dBc/Hz
100Hz -155dBc/Hz
N,B. With Phase Noise figures, basically the lower the number (the bigger the minus number, if you like) the better.
Mutec Jitter spec per the graph below:
So as you can see, the Mutec REF10 does not have the Sforzato's pretty case, but it does hold it's own in terms of raw performance. Plus, relative to the PMC-01 it is 30K less expensive.
