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

Smiths Watch Company, established in the 1940s in England, was a cornerstone of British watchmaking, producing high-quality, entirely in-house timepieces to meet the government’s push for self-sufficiency. Based in Cheltenham, Smiths crafted watches with the highest-grade movements, paying meticulous attention to the details of their dials and cases. Their watches, labeled with names like Smiths, Smiths De Luxe, Smiths Everest, Smiths National, Smiths Astral, and Smiths Imperial, reflected a commitment to precision and craftsmanship. Smiths gained international fame when their watch accompanied Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay to the summit of Mount Everest in 1953. Despite its prominence, the company could not withstand the quartz revolution of the 1970s and ceased production in the 1980s.

Today, Smiths watches are celebrated for their historical significance, British ingenuity, and enduring craftsmanship, with modern reinterpretations keeping the legacy alive.

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.
