I have a collection of 11 Arthur Pequegnat clocks, including three beautiful wall clocks which you can view on this 5-minute YouTube video.
I have written extensively about the Arthur Pequegnat Clock Company, but to summarize: the company was founded in Berlin, Ontario (renamed Kitchener in 1917) in 1904 and produced its final clock in 1941.
As regular readers know, I have been a passionate collector for 15 years, I take great joy in repairing and restoring old clocks. My collection has grown to 85 unique timepieces, each with its own story.
Background music and titles are provided only. If you have any questions about my Pequegnat collection or a specific clock, feel free to leave a comment.

good morning Ron. Curious why the Hamilton made an appearance in the video ? Are they associated to Pequegnat ?

It was simply caught in the frame when photographing. Thanks for noticing. Or do you mean the Hamilton Tall, later in the video?

Very nicely presented Ron, thanks. No fancy narrative or hype – just lets the clocks do the talking.
I’d be interested in the dates for each, the passage of time depicted by the changing dial type styles. That final clock has such a 30s/40s feel about it compared with some of the more ornate numerals.

Thanks Hugh. The company ceased production in 1941, and some clocks, such as the Moncton, were likely made in the 1930s. The Bedford, the last clock in the video, has a replacement dial, which I discovered while repairing the dial bezel door. The current dial lacks the company name, whereas the original would have been an inch narrower and would have included the company name. It was likely made in the 1930s, as you suggested. The Danby is definitely one of the last clocks produced by the company, judging by the placement of the company name in the upper middle portion of the dial.
The oldest clocks have the city name “Berlin” on the dial just below the number 6. These were made between 1904 and 1916. When the city’s name changed to Kitchener in 1917, the company continued producing the same range of clocks. However, dating those clocks precisely is almost impossible, as company records are either inaccessible or no longer exist.
