Pandas version checks

  • I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.

  • I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.

  • I have confirmed this bug exists on the main branch of pandas.

Reproducible Example

>>> pd.DatetimeTZDtype("ms", "America/New_York").base
dtype('<M8[ns]')

Issue Description

The .base attribute always returns a numpy dtype with ns resolution.

Expected Behavior

I would expect the resolution to match the resolution of the DatetimeTZDtype.
