About enterprise
City Clocks, Ltd.
City Clocks was founded by my grandfather in the late 19th century. I am Jeffrey Rosson and I became a Fellow of The British Horological Institute in November 1981. I am a third generation Horologist and I carefully choose every clock and watch for sale after checking quality, style and reliability.
Each repair is carried out by me or under my direction. My team of dedicated, qualified craftsmen are thorough and all our work is fully guaranteed. Three qualified, experienced clock repair craftsmen work with me in my workshop. We have two skilled watch repairers, one Rolex trained. We have a spcialist cabinet maker who restores clock cases as well as small peices of furniture. Our Bule specialist is ine of the finest craftsmen in the country doing this specialised work. We have our own dial restorer who will clean and revive the most scruffy of dials.
