The Melrose 7-Jewel pocket watch was inspired by the growing demand for affordable, American-made timepieces during the 1860s. Produced by the Melrose Watch Company of Massachusetts, it emphasized practical construction and dependable everyday timekeeping, reflecting an era when pocket watches were becoming accessible to more Americans rather than remaining primarily luxury items.

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 MELROSE
The Legacy of Melrose: A History of Precision, Style and Innovation
The Melrose Watch Company emerged in Melrose, Massachusetts, during the 1860s, growing out of the earlier Tremont Watch Company during an important period in American watchmaking. Operating for only a short time, Melrose produced pocket watches using traditional key-wind movements while American manufacturers were developing more efficient methods of mass production.
The company struggled to compete with larger makers such as Waltham, and production remained limited before operations ended in the late 1860s. Although Melrose never became a major manufacturer, its short history has made surviving watches particularly interesting to collectors. Today, Melrose pocket watches represent a rare piece of early Massachusetts watchmaking history.
