I started back in 1998, I was buying items from car boot sales in and around the South West area of England. I would restore the clocks and then sell them on to antique shops and markets. It all started off as a hobby as I was a illustrator at the time, but I was earning more money buying from car-boot sales and selling online than my full time job.
I soon moved on to better antiques and the on to clocks & watches its been an incredible journey and you never stop learning. I remember the first clock I every brought it was French 8-day striking Slate Mantel Clock. I repaired a chip to the case and refinished the case sold at Shepton Mallet flea market three weeks later I was then hooked.
