Book description
In The Clock Repairer's Manual, Mick Watters explains how to
approach all aspects of clock repair, maintenance and cleaning with
confidence. For anyone who has ever considered clock repair as a hobby
or a profession, as well as those under initial training and for the
existing repairer, this comprehensively illustrated and detailed
manual will be a useful reference. Topics covered include the typical
clock movement; dismantling, cleaning and reassembling; striking and
chiming clocks; repairing worn pivots and bushing and escapements,
staff fitting and jewelling.
Mick Watters was a Fellow of the British Horological Institute and
worked as an Instructional Officer for horological training, with over
forty years' experience in clock and watch repair.
