Clock History

My history and passion for antique clocks....

I work for the Hampton School District in the IT department taking care of a network of 855 computers. My clock ‘hobby’ is a good way to ‘balance’ out my day... (High tech computers during work, low tech clocks at home). It helps keep me sane! It all started with a cuckoo clock that was given to me as a christmas gift. Then I saw a mechanical one at a yard sale that needed help. So I stripped it down, repaired it, and refinished it, and it came  out wonderful. From then on, well, you can guess the rest.

I am a self employed clock enthusiast who for the past 4 years, has been buying, fixing, and selling old antique clocks. I have a collection of my own, and some for sale. I do trades, and purchases. Working or not. I can Repair your old clock, and get it running again, and give your home a restored ‘heartbeat’ again. I have quite a collection of repair tools and parts, and am expanding all the time in my own clock ‘workshop’.

Clocks are a passion for me and a great hobby that is both profitable, and enjoyable. I frequent Antique shows, garage sales, and flea markets looking for that ‘diamond in the rough’ that needs some TLC. There’s a sense of accomplishment when you bring life back to a clock that is over a century old, and was on someone’s mantel back in the day. I invite you to share your passion,  and interest in clocks. Send me an email, or a picture! Or let me know if I can be of service to you in getting grandma’s old clock in the attic working again bringing some life and memories back into your home.
