Two generations of watchmaking expertise can be found on display in our shop nestled in the heart of the French countryside. While the shop was established in 2008, watchmaking has been a family tradition for more than half a century. We specialise in the creation of unique, beautiful clocks entirely hand-crafted from the finest materials right here in our combined shop and workshop. In addition to ordering our bespoke designs and observing the artisanal creation process, our shop also offers the opportunity to buy, sell or repair time-pieces ranging from antique pocket-watches to larger clocks and even modern wristwatches. Visitors are welcome at our location in the medieval village of Issigeac in the Dordogne area of Southern France from Friday morning through to Sunday. You can also contact us by phone or mail with any queries.

Congreve Clock“The Congreve clock was invented in 1808 by William Congreve. I decided to build this clock because it is riveting to watch and just a beautiful-looking clock. As with all our clocks it is entirely hand made from brass, with solid oak woodwork and a glass protection case."

Scissor Clock"The Scissor Clock is another fascinating clock to watch with its two pendulums. It is built using a rare cross beat escapement."

Galileo Clock"The Galileo clock has been designed from a picture that Galileo’s son drew after his father had gone blind, during the early 17th century."
