McCabe and Dent carriage clocks were inspired by the Victorian era’s appetite for finely crafted travel timepieces that reflected both Britain’s industrial prowess and its taste for refined luxury, with James McCabe and Edward John Dent drawing on London’s tradition of precision chronometry—Dent’s expertise honed through projects like the Great Clock of Westminster and McCabe’s reputation for elegant watch and clockmaking—to produce portable clocks that combined robust, reliable movements with ornate cases, often incorporating features like striking or repeating mechanisms, aimed at affluent travelers and collectors who valued both mechanical excellence and aesthetic distinction.

Heartfelt Testimonials on Clock Repair
David Keeler ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
My Seth Thomas clock is a family heirloom – it was given to my grandfather in the 1950’s as a recognition for his community service. It fell from my fireplace mantel and was damaged. I was fortunate to find Times Ticking on the Internet. They did a wonderful job repairing and restoring my clock which now sits proudly on my mantel again. I could not be more pleased with the quality of work and the helpfulness offered at every point in the process. This is truly a professional organization which I highly recommend to anyone needing their services.
Peter Wilson ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Trusted a very sentimental clock to Times Ticking for refurbishment. Spoke on the phone and immediately felt that they were the right company. They explained the process to us and the turn around time. We received our clock back in the agreed time frame and were amazed at the quality of repair not only to the clock casing but the clock works as if new. The clock belonged to my father in law who passed recently, we placed the clock on the mantle and my 92 year old mother in law heard the chimes and it brought tears to her eyes and a smile to her face. THANK YOU for that gift. 10 out of 10
Susan Runk ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
My parents own a schoolhouse circa 1870’s that I had cleaned for their 60th anniversary. The job was done on time at the exact price quoted, I would trust no one else with my clocks. The staff was very friendly and communicated with me when the job was complete. Thanks for the great work!! I’ll be back for sure.
Peter Vroom ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I was initially hesitant to send off a clock to another state without personally visiting a physical store. However, the staff at Times Ticking immediately contacted me once the clock was received and provided a quote and estimated timeline to fix. I received the fixed clock back through the mail much earlier than anticipated and in wonderful working condition! Despite being over 100 years old, the clock mechanism looks almost brand new after cleaning and repair. Thank you!
Becky G. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I am so happy with how my Seth Thomas clock turned out! Thanks to Times Ticking I learned that I inherited a priceless 200+ year-old wall clock (with wood gears), and also thanks to Times Ticking I am able to use it to keep time in my office and enjoy hearing the warm “tick tock” while I work. Effective communication, exemplary care with my antique, and reasonable pricing.
Casey Howard⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Our old Seth Thomas clock was destined to be passed down to another generation (4th) not working. Thanks to TT for giving it life and a future. They had to totally dismantle it, redo bushings and replace some parts. What a job well done, and a lot of work! Great communicators as well as doing follow up to make sure that all is well. Thank you all at Times Ticking.

Expert Care for Every Clock Style & Collection
Armand Couaillet carriage clocks were inspired by the late 19th-century demand for reliable, portable timepieces that combined French decorative artistry with the precision of industrialized manufacturing, drawing on the tradition of elegant Parisian carriage clocks pioneered by makers like Breguet and Garnier but adapting them for mass production; based in Saint-Nicolas-d’Aliermont, Couaillet embraced the era’s technological advances to produce a wide variety of models—ranging from simple travel clocks to ornate, gilded designs—making quality French horology accessible to a broader audience while still honoring the aesthetic and mechanical heritage of their high-end predecessors.
We know that your Carriage clock is important to you and understand that the sentimental value more often than not outweighs the monetary value. Our expert clockmakers strive to make sure your clock can be enjoyed for many years to come.
Breguet carriage clocks were inspired by Napoleon Bonaparte’s request in 1812 for a durable yet elegant timepiece that could accompany him on military campaigns, leading Abraham-Louis Breguet to create a compact, shock-resistant travel clock with a balance spring and platform escapement that maintained precision despite movement; this innovation drew on Breguet’s mastery of fine horology and the period’s fascination with portable luxury, blending robust engineering for life on the road with the refined craftsmanship and understated elegance that defined his work, ultimately setting the standard for all carriage clocks that followed.

Paul Garnier carriage clocks were inspired by the desire to make the elegance and precision of French portable timepieces more accessible to a wider audience, building on the luxury heritage established by Breguet but streamlining design and manufacturing for broader production; influenced by the growing 19th-century middle class and the expanding railway network, Garnier incorporated his patented frictional rest escapement and practical engineering to create reliable, affordable travel clocks that retained Parisian style, ultimately transforming the carriage clock from an elite object into a popular household and travel companion.

St. Nicolas carriage clocks were inspired by the thriving horological tradition of Saint-Nicolas-d’Aliermont, a French clockmaking hub that sought to combine the artistry of Parisian carriage clocks with the efficiency of regional mass production in the late 19th and early 20th centuries; drawing on the skills of local craftsmen and the industrial capabilities developed in the town, these clocks were designed to meet the growing domestic and international demand for stylish yet affordable travel timepieces, blending decorative appeal with dependable movements so they could serve both as elegant household accents and practical companions for travelers.

HISTORY OF CARRIAGE
The Legacy of Carriage: A History of Precision, Style and Innovation
Carriage clocks, first created in 1812 by Abraham-Louis Breguet for Napoleon Bonaparte, were designed for accurate, portable timekeeping before the wristwatch era. Built with a sturdy case, glass panels, and a carrying handle, these “officer’s clocks” combined durability with French elegance, making them prized by travelers. In the 19th century, makers like Paul Garnier, James McCabe, Edward John Dent, and Armand Couaillet expanded their appeal with features such as repeating mechanisms, alarms, and decorative styles from gilt-brass to enamel.
Manufacturing centers like Saint-Nicolas-d’Aliermont turned carriage clocks into an international success, blending fine craftsmanship with mass production. By the early 20th century, they symbolized sophistication and reliability, valued both at home and on the road. Today, they remain coveted by collectors for their beauty, precision, and historical significance.
