One of the most celebrated horologists in history, Thomas Tompion (1639-1713) is often referred to as the "Father of English Clock Making." During his lifetime, Tompion’s watches and clocks were the epitome of horology. Tompion executed royal commissions for King Charles II and King William III, and he was one of the first to devise a numbering system for the more than 5,000 clocks and watches he produced during his lifetime. This is an early example (#0304) from the hand of one of the greatest horologists of all time and offers a glimpse of early English and high precision horology. The Solvang Antique Center of Solvang, California sold a very similar example #0228 recently that was retailed at the list price of $35,000.
