Watches & Clocks

Attempts at watch and clock restoration. Mostly successful.

I love looking at these and trying to understand how they work. I’m not always successful in fixing them, but I have done it with a few!

My grandfather was a horologist, and using his tools helped me feel a little closer to him. And I got to learn a lot.

A watch from 1952, I was able to clean the inner workings and restore it. Totally mechanical, too.
