Our Passion

At Melbourne Clock Repairs we are extremely passionate about clockmaking and undertake sympathetic restorations and repairs of antique and modern clocks.

What is Horology? The word Horology literally translates to “the study of time” or clock or watch making.

We regularly travel to Switzerland to the Basle Fair (the world’s largest clock and watch show) to enable us to procure equipment and tools to perform clock repairs to the highest of standards in a modern and comprehensively equipped workshop, and also to keep up to date with the latest horological techniques.

“My American Mantle clock has been in the family for 140+ yrs and I wanted to hear it chime again as I had as a child. John complimented the condition of my clock and that was nice to hear.”

“John was able to provide a bespoke service in repairing (recreating) a broken pulley for my grandfather's grandfather clock. He was clear about what needed to be done and the timeframe required. It will be great to get the 200 year old clock going again after a two year hiatus.”

“I am so happy with the friendly and excellent service from John. He was able to repair and clean a mantle clock that has been in my family since the early 1950's and passed down from my grandparents. The clock works and chimes beautifully now.”

“The professionalism, care and artistry delivered in servicing our Jape Feres French brass clock has exceeded my expectations. I am thrilled to own a clock that works as well as it did when made sometime around 1850-1858. Thanks John.”

“John was easy to deal with and did a fantastic job cleaning and restoring my clock. It belonged to my grandfather and hasn't worked for the 30 years that I've had it. It's lovely to hear it chiming now. Many thanks John.”
