I started this website with the intention of showcasing some of the many clocks I have collected over a lifetime, the aim being to downsize my collection but the first six visitors were all looking for someone to repair their antique clocks in Brentwood, Chelmsford, Colchester, Southend, Epping and Romford.
The huge demand for a reliable but affordable local horologist took me by surprise so the site evolved and now I spend my spare time fixing other people's clocks. I still need to sell off some of my collection and when I find the time I will start adding my own clocks as they become ready for sale; all the movements are sound and should give many years' service unless abused so come with a 12 months parts and labour guarantee.

All of the above sites are completely independent; I cannot edit or manipulate your comments so a favourable review here will encourage others. Now, if I've saved you the complete cost of a repair by helping you to solve a clock problem yourself through an email exchange or just by following my free website advice, and you don't think a brief online review is enough to express your gratitude, then you're in luck!

Hard to find the correct words to describe the quality of service provided by Gordon, it's simply out of this world! I had inherited an old ships barometer which had been in our family for several generations. Unfortunately the glass, as is often the case, was cracked right across the barometer. Gordon and his colleagues replaced the glass, polished the bezel, refitted the pointer and returned it to me in under a week. In today's business environment it's hard to find someone as professional as this.

Took my sentimental carriage clock to be repaired, it was cleaned and repaired to a very professional standard at a reasonable price. I was kept updated with regard to price and length of time the repair would take. This is a very professional service and I would definitely recommend.

Very pleasant and extremely knowledgeable person. Well skilled in the art of horology. Returned my carriage clock within the time proposed in good working order, with explanation of the work which was carried out. Very pleased, very happy to have my clock back in working order and keeping good time. Well recommended.

I had a Smiths Mantel Clock that had been handed down to me from my grandparents that kept stopping and that had never, to my knowledge, been serviced. Gordon was able to do all that was necessary to give it a new lease of life. He was very knowledgeable, had all the skills required, and obviously cares about the work he does. I now know far more about the clock itself then I have ever done. Very happy to recommend.

We have a rather ornate cuckoo clock which we bought as a souvenir of our time in Germany. We had it for many years though recently it stopped working. Gordon did an absolutely fabulous job in repairing it - which even included making a replacement part. The quality of the care and service he provided was exceptional and I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone looking to have a clock serviced and, or, repaired.

I couldn't be happier with the service from Horologica. Gordon was knowledgeable and friendly, and took the time to explain in detail the work he was proposing to do on my clock. I felt my clock was in safe hands, and it was returned to me quickly, very securely packed and fully repaired.
