Expert Care for Every Watch Style & Collection

We specialize in repairing popular Lip collections. Learn more about the history of these collections:

Lip Electronic Watch Repair >

The Lip Electronic watch was inspired by the post-war push for technological innovation and precision, marking a bold step into the future of horology. Introduced in the late 1950s, the Lip Electronic was born from the ambition to create a new kind of timepiece that blended traditional mechanical craftsmanship with cutting-edge electronic science. Spearheaded by Fred Lip, the company developed the R27 movement—one of the world’s first commercially available electric watch movements—aiming to reduce friction and improve accuracy by eliminating the need for a balance spring. The design and concept reflected the optimism of the atomic age and France’s desire to lead in both style and technological progress, making the Lip Electronic not only a milestone in watchmaking but also a symbol of mid-century innovation.

We know that your Lip watch is important to you and understand that the sentimental value more often than not outweighs the monetary value. Our expert watchmakers strive to make sure your watch can be worn for many years to come.

Lip Himalaya Watch Repair >

The Lip Himalaya watch was inspired by the heroic spirit of exploration and endurance, taking its name from the Himalayas in honor of Maurice Herzog’s historic 1950 ascent of Annapurna—the first successful climb of an 8,000-meter peak. Created to embody rugged reliability and resilience, the Himalaya line was designed for those facing extreme conditions, whether in the mountains or everyday life. Its durable construction, shock resistance, and elegant yet practical styling made it a favorite among French consumers during the 1950s and beyond. The watch symbolized strength, precision, and the adventurous postwar optimism of a generation seeking new frontiers.

Lip Mach 2000 Watch Repair >

The Lip Mach 2000 watch was inspired by the radical spirit of 1970s industrial design and the desire to break free from traditional watch aesthetics. Created by renowned French designer Roger Tallon, who also designed the TGV high-speed train, the Mach 2000 was a bold experiment in form and function, featuring asymmetrical cases, playful primary-colored pushers, and ergonomic shapes that challenged conventional symmetry. The design reflected a modernist philosophy where utility met artistic expression, aiming to make timekeeping both innovative and visually provocative. It became an icon of French avant-garde design and a statement piece for those drawn to bold, unconventional style.

Lip Nautic-Ski Watch Repair >

The Lip Nautic-Ski watch was inspired by the growing demand for rugged, stylish timepieces suited for aquatic sports and adventure during the 1960s, a period marked by a global fascination with underwater exploration. Introduced in 1967 to coincide with Lip’s 100th anniversary, it was designed as France’s first 200-meter water-resistant automatic watch and one of the earliest to incorporate an electronic movement, blending innovation with functionality. The name “Nautic-Ski” evoked a lifestyle of both diving and skiing—activities that required durability, precision, and flair—making it a symbol of sporty elegance and technological advancement for the modern adventurer.

Lip T18 Watch Repair >

The Lip T18 watch was inspired by the streamlined elegance of Art Deco design and the growing popularity of wristwatches in the early 20th century. Introduced in the 1930s, the T18 featured a rectangular case and clean, geometric lines that reflected the modernist aesthetic of the time. It was also engineered for reliability and precision, becoming one of Lip’s most successful pre-war models. The watch gained historical significance when one was gifted to General Charles de Gaulle during World War II, symbolizing national pride and resilience. Its timeless design and connection to French heritage continue to make it a cherished piece among collectors.

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.

Doug Hammer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I had several issues with my Bulova mechanical watch, including running too fast. They not only fixed it, but it is better than when I bought it new. Amazing! And the only place I recommend for service.

Kent Bolin ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Outstanding in every way. TT exceeded all of my expectations…and my old watch is working like new.

Nameless Ghoul ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I never believed in miracles until the day I got my watch back. I never thought I would see it working again, but they made it happen. I am extremely happy with the work they did, and I definitely appreciate all the research they did to make this small miracle happen.

Brian Rudnicki ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Very satisfied with my experience. My favorite watch is now back running and working perfectly. I was a little leary as we are in GA and they are not but they were very timely and easy to communicate with so it all worked out great.

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 LIP

The Legacy of Lip: A History of Precision, Style and Innovation

Lip, one of France’s most historic watchmakers, began in 1867 when Emmanuel Lipmann opened a small clock workshop in Besançon. Known for innovation, Lip produced some of France’s first wristwatches and pioneered electronic movements like the R27, T24, and T26 under Fred Lip’s leadership, pushing the boundaries of modern watchmaking.

Lip gained global prestige with wearers like Charles de Gaulle and Winston Churchill. In the 1970s, it introduced the bold Mach 2000 series by Roger Tallon, capturing the spirit of modern design. Despite facing financial struggles, Lip was revived and remains a symbol of French ingenuity, blending style, innovation, and historical significance.
