"Quality is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention,
sincere effort, intelligent direction, and skilful execution.
It represents the wise choice of many alternatives" 

 

Established in 1949 in Rochdale by Fred and Alan Oldham father and son, both precision tool makers by trade, following the second world war decided to follow their shared passion for Horology.

In January 1949 Alan was the first family member to gain accreditation by The British Horological Institute as  a Craft Member registration number 3072. Alan received his diploma from Sir Harold Spencer Jones, F.R.S.,MA.,ScD.,F.R.A.S whowas the president of the Institute and also the H.M Astronomer Royal.

Alan was also the first family member to join the British watch and clock maker's guild in 1958, registration number O26.

Today we still pride ourselves on working to the same principles and high standards of workmanship that we set in 1949. 

    

Alan's son Alex joined the team in 1984 making it a three generation family business, between us we have a wealth of experience and skill that is necessary to ensure high quality workmanship and dedication to our craft.

We only carry out work with the up most skill and care, ensuring all work is in keeping with the items integrity. 

Every clock we receive for repair is very important to us, whether it's the routine maintenance of a common mantle, wall clock, longcase clock, barometer, barograph, or bringing back to life a treasured family heirloom, we treat each clock with very special care.
