Trusted by Clock Owners Across the Country
"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."
Becky G.
"Trusted a very sentimental clock to Times Ticking for refurbishment… 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."
Peter Wilson
"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… Despite being over 100 years old, the clock mechanism looks almost brand new after cleaning and repair. Thank you!"
Peter Vroom
Where Others Stop, We Begin
Many shops won't touch an antique Gilbert clock. We do.
William L. Gilbert began making clocks in Connecticut in the 1820s, and his Winsted company became known for mantel, kitchen, and shelf clocks found in American homes.
Whether your Gilbert needs routine care or a complete restoration, we have you covered. From sourcing rare parts to tough repairs, no job is too small.
