Smiths English Clocks
Clock Repair Center USA

 

In 1931 S Smith and Sons Ltd. formed Smiths English Clocks Ltd., as the Clock and Watch division of S Smith & Sons Motor Accessories Ltd. In Cricklewood, England.

 

In 1932 Smiths purchased a company called English Clock and Watch Manufacturers Ltd of Coventry. In 1934, Smiths bought the Enfield Clock Company, which continued production in Edmonton until 1950.  The Smith's 8-day Calotte clock was introduced at the British Industries Fair in 1934.  In the 1930’s, Smiths produced a synchronous electric chiming clock.

In 1944 a shuffle of the whole Smiths organization was made. The name of the principal company was changed to S Smith & Sons England Ltd with four divisions.  In 1956 Smiths offered clocks with the new German "floating balance" movement that was licensed to Smiths. In 1960 they offered a smaller version to their own design, which was used because regulation was easy and precise .

With the decline of the clock and watch manufacturing in the 1970’s, European and British companies were unable to compete with lower cost products offered by makers in Asia.

Smiths ceased to produce clocks for the domestic market in 1979.
