He can fix clocks and watches faster than many in his trade because of his lone experience He prides himself on making his repairs affordable because he genuinely wants a timepiece to be doing what it was meant to be tell time. But the work is rarely easy. Some of the timepieces brought to him date from the 1600s or earlier and he must make parts from scratch after extensive research drawings from antique trade books. Hundreds of tools are lined up in front of this work desk. Optical machines magnify tiny parts. A woman's watch about a half inch square from the Art Deco 1930's is placed in the palm of my hand, so small and thin I can barely grasp it with my fingers. How one places the parts in the back of that tiny watch with surgeon precision boggles the mind. Watch or clock repairers are getting more ig difficult to find. It can be expensive because parts cannot be found or must be remade. North Carolina has by estimate only about five master watch and clock repairers. The Sandhills has at least two who serve the area, and they both share a father/son lineage.
