After taking a 132 year old clock to Bob for a total rebuild of the movement the clock never ran totally right. Initially, I had to wait about a year to get it back. With in a short time I have it back because it kept stopping. Took all but another year to get it back and was charger 132.80 for a cleaning. Short time after I got it back it still stopped now and then. So, back it went. It took about six months this time to get it back only because I kept hounding him on when I was getting it back. This all started back in the end of 2013 and to this day it still stops. I emailed him asking him if he'll look at it again and I mentioned I hope it doesn't take another year to get it back. I received a reply asking why the negativity and he is surprised I want to bring it back to him. Well hello, he is supposed to be one of the best and is a curator for the National Watch & Clock Museum in Columbia. I replied to his email saying he worked on it and he should fix it since I already have over $551 in the clock ($418.70 for the rebuild of the works).
He now is blowing me off.
Stay away, he doesn't stand behind his work! read more
