Why our clocks are better.

Proclocks has a long tradition of recreating classic designs from the past and making them available for your enjoyment at a reasonable cost. Our craftsmen employ many of the old world techniques when creating your special clock.

Typically, a classic model from the past arrives at our design studio as little more than a photograph and some notes. The original patent drawings are usually unavailable, and blue prints do not exist. If a working example of the piece can be found,we will attempt to purchase one. Most times however; this is not possible as some of the models we produce are museum pieces, or of such scarcity as to be prohibitively expensive to obtain.

Working with skilled artisans, we make drawings and blue prints to exacting specifications using time honored methods and techniques. The machining of parts is executed to precise tolerances and exacting specifications by master clock makers. We use quality materials, like real porcelain and brass, there are never any plastic parts used in the manufacture of our clocks.

The development of a classic reproduction can take as long as five years just to research and create the parts as close to the original as possible. Once production begins we manufacture very limited quantities of any one model. This means when you purchase a ProClocks quality clock it is one of only a few hundred in the world. This level of exclusivity is a desirable trait, when one considers the clock will likely become a family heirloom passed down through generations.

All our reproductions are actual mechanical clocks, not mock-ups with quartz movements. A ProClocks piece is most assuredly a genuine mechanical clock with all the parts working together just like the original. It is like having the very piece that was made, in some cases a century ago, only new and guaranteed to work.

When you consider the purchase of a high end clock for your home or collection, remember the old adage “you get what you pay for”. It is not hard to make a clock look pretty, or appear to be the same as a rare and beautiful piece, but it is very difficult and time consuming to create these works of art the way ProClocks does. Our clocks have value, in the craftsmanship, the materials and the historical accuracy that has gone into each piece. The value and quality of a ProClocks limited run edition is miles ahead of the competition.

We hope you will find the perfect piece here on our website. We also have a retail showroom in West Chester Ohio where many of these clocks are available for retail sale.
