You don't want an adjustable voltage reference, you want a precision
constant voltage reference. Your adjustable voltage ref will be only
as good as the resistors you have. So unless you have 0.01%
resistors*, in the exact specific values that you need to get the
voltage you need, you're out of luck.

*needed for 1 cent frequency accuracy
