Schatz Clock Repair
Schatz clocks are renowned for their precision and durability, particularly standing out in the realm of 400-day or anniversary clocks and maritime timepieces. These clocks, crafted by the Schatz Clock Company, are celebrated for their intricate torsion pendulum mechanisms, which require winding only once a year, a remarkable feat in mechanical clock design. The craftsmanship in Schatz clocks is evident in their consistent timekeeping and elegant aesthetic, often featuring ornate dials and finely crafted cases.The Schatz Clock Company, officially known as Aug. Schatz & Söhne, was founded, in 1881, in Germany and rose to prominence in the post-World War II era as a leading manufacturer of 400-day clocks. These clocks, also known as anniversary clocks for their once-a-year winding requirement, became synonymous with the Schatz brand. The company's innovation and mastery in torsion pendulum clock design allowed it to dominate this niche market. Schatz clocks were not only functional but also beautifully designed, making them popular across the globe. Despite facing challenges during the Quartz Crisis of the 1970s, the Schatz Clock Company's legacy endures, marked by a commitment to quality and an enduring appeal among collectors and those who appreciate the art of traditional clockmaking.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rebecca Hill
Wonderful attention to detail, careful diligence, and reasonably priced. My clock is working “like new” and I am so pleased.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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.
