Crunruh Books - Clocks, Watches and their Making

I feature many hard-to-find books on the art & science of clock and watchmaking, from how-to make a whole clock, such as the tower clock and English bracket clock repair to specific titles such as The Watchmakers Lathe and Watchmakers' Graver. Information on pendulums, escapements, hair-springs, wheel & pinion cutting and much more is available.

When you buy books directly from a small website, you eliminate Ebay and Amazon fees for your seller. At Crunruh, I pass much of the savings back to you with lower prices.
