Vintage Car & Aircraft Clocks & Aviator Watch Repair Restoration at Timekeepers of Escondido
We have been repairing and restoring all types of mechanical aircraft clocks made for WWI & WWII aircraft from the British, German and US air forces. Very rarely we have came across pieces from Japanese, Italian and French forces for over 20 years.
Whether your car is an award winning restoration or a daily driver, TIMEKEEPERS OF ESCONDIDO will get your auto's clock ticking. We offer mechanical restoration to original specs on many domestic 12 volt mechanical clocks.
We specialize in all types of mechanical automobile and aircraft clocks including AMC Rambler Classic, Chevy, Camaro, Nova, Dodge, Buick, Plymouth, Chevelle/El Camino, Monza/Vega, Impala/Caprice, Ford, Galaxie, T-bird, Mustang, Escort, Mercury, Montego, 82 Lynx, Olds, Cutlass, Harley-Davidson, Hamilton, Elgin, Waltham, Elgin, Junghans, Smiths, Kienzle, Jaeger, etc.
The aircraft clocks are precision instruments made to withstand rugged conditions encountered in combat aircraft. They also can also have a number of complications (features) including: chronograph, elapsed time and calendar.
These clocks need to be serviced just like any precision watch. In fact, more so. A modern watch is well sealed against moisture and dirt. These clocks are not as tightly sealed and frequently are installed in unpressurized aircraft that operate at over 10,000 feet. The changes in temperature and humidity can degrade the lubricants and the atmospheric dust works its way into the case through the openings for the winding stem and function buttons.These clocks are completely disassembled when overhauled. It is the only way to check all jewels, springs and pivots. During service it is important to install new mainsprings, renew all pivots, adjust the escapement and various functions for wear, clean the case and dial, refinish hands if needed, etc.
If you are interested in having your vintage mechanical car or aviation clock/watch worked on and expertly fixed please contact us.
