About

My name is Tommy Jobson and I am a horologist (clockmaker). I offer a complete bespoke clock making service based in rural Shropshire (UK). I design clocks around my client's input and ideas and manufacture by hand using mainly traditional methods. I also offer a comprehensive repair and restoration service for clocks and watches. This channel is aimed at giving a fly on the wall view of me in action.
