Clocksmiths is devoted to those SERIOUSLY involved in the horological trade.

Clocksmiths is for those who have either a direct or indirect tie to horology with the focus on repair, sales or expertise.

A brief resume describing your experience in horology is required.

We are trying to limit membership to those that, as least somewhat, depend on repairs as some source of income and if not then we'd like those that can bring expertise in one or more specific areas of horology.

Your membership affiliation with NAWCC, AWCI, or other recognized horological affiliation is a plus but does not automatically qualify you for admission.

The NAWCC and others are great organizations but our concern is that it usually promotes "freebies" and not paid professional service.

We are not knocking these organizations but being a member of these organizations does not tell us if your are in the repair field seriously.

We discuss Repair, Procurement of Materials and Services, Research, Selling, Construction, Preservation, Clock Appraising, and the Business of Running a Repair Shop.

In general, only those who are SERIOUSLY in the trade will be considered.

Send your required resume, which you will receive as an automatic E-mail once you apply for membership via the WEB, directly to:
