We are happy to announce that Dr. Safwat Wahba will present an illustrated program on Joseph Windmills and a Windmills’ tallcase clock (circa 1680) that he found and purchased. Windmills was a gifted Clock and Watchmaker who preceded Thomas Tompion as Master of the London Clockmaker’s Guild.
This informative presentation will be of interest to everyone who enjoy the period of early English clock making!!
Learn about the two companies, U. S. Watch Company and Columbia Watch Company, in the time period 1885 to 1904 when they tried to survive under the shadow of American Watch Company.

Since the invention of mechanical timekeeping, passionate collectors have recognized the value of horology and built fine collections privately held, in museums or have been dispersed but are documented. These collectors deserve our attention, study, and everlasting gratitude. This symposium will examine the lives and collections of many of these people. Please plan to join us in Manhattan in 2022. Our co-host is the Horological Society of New York
