Antique and Vintage Mechanical Clocks

Every year, my wife and I embark on a fall getaway to our cottage in central Canada to celebrate Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is a time to express gratitude for the harvest and the blessings of the past year, celebrated with family and friends. It signifies togetherness, reflection, and the importance of giving thanks for life’s abundance. In Canada, Thanksgiving is celebrated in October.

This change of scenery offers us the perfect chance to relax with a few good books and spend quality time with friends and neighbours over a glass (or two) of wine and enjoy roast turkey and all the fixings.

With many of my blog posts written ahead of time, there will be no interruptions in the content I share throughout the fall getaway. As always, you can expect fresh posts on Tuesdays and Fridays at 6:00 am AST.

My blog continues to feature my clock collection, the joys and challenges of maintaining and restoring vintage and antique clocks, and a wealth of horological topics of interest.

While I may be a bit slower in responding to emails and blog comments during this time, rest assured that your questions and feedback are important to me and will be addressed.

During our travels, we’ll likely discover new clocks while browsing antique stores, flea markets, and junk shops. You can look forward to fresh stories, repair challenges, and perhaps a new major restoration project.
