Up for your consideration is a 1992 Ridgeway Grandfather clock. This is a beautiful clock with two shelves on each side. The top and bottom has a light. It plays three different melodies. This would be a nice addition to anyone home. I have fully serviced it and it is ready to go.

Up for your consideration is a 1880's wall clock. This clock is the best of both worlds. It has an antique case, dial & pendulum but has a battery movement so all you have to do is replace the battery once a year. The original movement was separated from the case many years ago. Make me a reasonable offer and this could be yours.

Just in and ready for your consideration. E.N. Welch large wall clock. This clock was made in the mid 1800's and is a time only. All you will hear with this clock is the soothing tic toc. This is a spring wound clock and it has been fully service (a $250 value) which will give you years of enjoyment. Click on picture to see all the details.

Been buying some clocks lately. I'm cleaning the movements and oiling them. Some are getting a complete overhaul. You might pay a little more for a clock from a clock shop but you know it is fully serviced.

I think I'm going to cut back on service calls. I've been doing eight every Friday and it's been just too much. I started today at 7:30 and did not get back until after 6pm. Every stop the clocks had big problems. I was behind all day and did not even get a lunch.

Clocks are coming in left and right. The phone won't stop ringing. I'm already out three months. I'm thinking about leaving the phone off until closing time and then return calls. I did not get any repairs done today.

Due to the closing of the only other clock shop in the area, Behind The Times Clocks will be experiencing longer wait times on turn-arounds. Currently, the other shop's customers are picking up their clocks and calling me to repair them. I am overwhelmed, to say the least. It may take a day or two for me to return your call when you leave a message. My phone has been ringing so often, I can’t get any work done. So I won’t be answering the phone, just returning calls as time permits. I wasn't expecting this at this time of my life.

Please, if you cannot be patient about the potentially longer wait time, consider clock shops in Chicago or Madison. I have built my business on customer service and fast turn-around time, and I will continue to do the best I can to be quick.

In some cases, I might suggest you opt for a new movement if available, so you can get your clock back in a few weeks. If your clock needs extensive repair to the movement, I will turn it away if you don’t want a new movement. New movements are exact replacements manufactured in Germany from the same company.
