The George P. Reed Pocket Lever Chronometer draws from Reed’s early innovations in adjusted, high-grade lever movements built for railroad and scientific use, where consistent timekeeping under vibration and temperature change was critical; its architecture reflects Reed’s focus on jeweled pivots, fine regulators, and hand-finished components intended to rival the finest American and European chronometer-grade pieces of the 1860s–1880s.

George P. Reed Repeating Pocket Watch Repair >
Model #1, the George P. Reed 19th-century repeating pocket watch, was inspired by Reed’s pursuit of mechanical refinement and acoustic perfection at a time when American horology was racing to rival Europe’s best. Reed was obsessed with improving the precision and reliability of complex mechanisms, and repeaters—watches that chime the time on demand—were considered the pinnacle of craftsmanship. His innovations in escapements, compensated balances, and striking works allowed him to build repeaters that were not only mechanically advanced but also musically clear, reflecting both scientific curiosity and a desire to prove that American makers could master the most difficult complications of the era.

George P. Reed Regulator Pocket Watch Repair >
George P. Reed’s regulator pocket watch layout came from Reed’s pursuit of precision timekeeping during an era when accurate reference clocks were essential for jewelers, observatories, and master watchmakers. By separating the hour, minute, and seconds indications onto their own sub-dials, the design created an uncluttered, highly legible display that made fine adjustments and timing comparisons easier—an approach borrowed from scientific regulators used in workshops and timing labs of the mid-19th century.

Heartfelt Testimonials on Watch Repair
Jane Murray ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I found Times Ticking on the internet. The last time I had a watch repaired locally it cost more than the watch did new. I got it back just like new 2 weeks later and 2,000 miles away. HIGHLY recommended. Times Ticking was prompt, inexpensive, and even phoned when they got my watch and told me in advance what it would cost to repair.
Keith Kerney ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Their service was grade A!!! They're quick and professional; they always kept me updated with status of my watches. Their work is flawless which they stand behind, to me most importantly. They speak to you as if you're an old friend asking for help; in which they're always happy to do. Times Ticking; a place where you can ask an old friend for help.
Matthew Emory ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I cannot speak to the local facilities or sales staff. I am an internet customer who took a chance and sent my prized Accutron watch across the country to folks I do not know and have never met. This was a big decision which took several weeks to discern. I am thrilled with my decision and am planning to send my Dad’s watch in for repair. The difference? This time there is no hesitation whatsoever.
Ellen Hymes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I was thrilled that they were able to repair and clean up a watch that I had inherited from my mother. It looks great and works great. The service was fast. The person who called me about the watch was very friendly and seemed grateful for my business. I would highly recommend them to anyone and will use them again if the need arises. So refreshing to receive such good customer service these days!
Peter K ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I highly recommend Times Ticking for watch repair. Jesse & crew know their stuff and even take the time to talk with you. They communicate very friendly/professionally and most of all the prices are more than fair for such craftsmen skills! My opinion: They are like the American Restoration of watches.

HISTORY OF GEORGE P. REED
The Legacy of George P. Reed: A History of Precision, Style and Innovation
George P. Reed was a highly respected 19th-century Boston watchmaker and inventor whose work helped advance American horology during its formative years, particularly in precision escapements and regulator design. Active from the mid-1800s until his death in 1896, Reed is best known for patenting the Reed Whiplash Regulator in 1867—a fine-adjustment mechanism that allowed exceptionally precise rate regulation and was adopted by leading American makers, including Waltham and other high-grade manufacturers.
Though Reed produced some watches under his own name, his larger legacy lies in his engineering contributions, his collaboration with top watch companies of the era, and his influence on the refinement of American railroad-grade and high-accuracy movements, which made his name synonymous with craftsmanship and technical innovation in the golden age of U.S. watchmaking.
