Rombach and Haas

"When entering the company’s manufacturing facility, one instantly feels taken back to the beginning of the history of cuckoo clocks. Founded in 1894, the company is now managed in the fourth generation by Ingolf and Conny Haas. The inside of the building has not changed much. Workbenches from the 18th century are still in use, the clockmakers walk on ceded wooden floors and the components are still taken from drawers with porcelain knobs, which were already used more than 100 years ago to store similar parts. Ingolf Haas works hard to maintain the historic work atmosphere and promises to continue to ensure all timepieces to be manufactured in this unique ambiance." - Read More

ChronoArt

Barry Gamble has been designing, manufacturing and repairing contemporary and modern clock art in his California Sonoma/Napa area workshop for nearly 50 years. In addition to restoring and improving historical works such as Aurora and Prisma, Gamble is world-renowned for his own unique chronological creations.

Gamble graduated from UC Berkeley with a degree in electrical engineering. He worked from 1964-1973 for Hewlett Packard, while starting Chrono-Art Inc. in 1971. In 1973, he left HP to pursue horology full-time, dreaming up and making beautiful clocks with the latest technology at an affordable price.

Technology and its changes are important elements in Gamble’s designs. His work displays time in beautiful and playful ways, yet also reflects the periods in time during which the work was created. For example, TTL logic becoming reasonably priced in 1969 permitted Dot Clock to be produced. CMOS logic allowed for the Audocron in 1979 (inspired by a friend’s idea of creating a clock for the blind). The availability of Bi-Color Light Emitting Diodes led to the Time Square in 1987. One-time programmable microprocessors helped move the Vortex & Omichron (along with laser cutting) into existence in 1990. The introduction of blue light emitting diodes added to the TimeCapsule. Ultra-bright blue light emitting diodes are featured on the Omichron II. Even brighter LEDs led to the DreamTime and improvements in the Aurora & Prisma clocks. Changes in technology can also render certain works in a constant state of ‘in progress’ over time.

Loetscher

The Quality and Spirit of Switzerland

Loetscher clocks are a piece of Switzerland because of the materials within and because of the stories they tell.

Locally Sourced Swiss Materials and Craftsmen: The stones, the sand, and the
linden wood are sourced locally, from nearby Loetscher’s home town of Brienz. Brienz is a cozy little Alpine village located right in the heart of Switzerland, sitting at the northern shore of the breathtakingly beautiful Lake Brienz. This peaceful, idyllic hamlet of just over 2,000 souls has developed a reputation over the centuries for its artisans in the woodworking industry. These gifted craftsmen and craftswomen are admired across the continent for consistently producing the highest quality woodworks. Not surprisingly, Brienz boasts a world-renowned woodcarving school.

Swiss Culture and Stories: The world-famous stories of Heidi the charming orphan and Barry the legendary rescue dog are intertwined with depictions of other Swiss culture, architecture, native wildlife, and traditions.

Loetscher built their first clock in 1920, and they're deeply gratified to say that the same loving care and craftsmanship that went into their first clock, still goes into every Loetscher cuckoo clock built today, making each one a truly timeless timepiece. Loetscher is also proud to say that they're the only genuine Swiss chalet cuckoo clock maker in existence today.

Loetscher operates two facilities in different parts of Switzerland that have specific
duties in the manufacturing of the clocks. All of the initial steps involved in building the clocks are done in the woodworking facility in Brienz, a small village in central Switzerland in the canton of Berne. Their woodworking artisans take wood that has been aged several years (to ensure it won’t warp or crack in humid or dry environments) and hand-carve every chalet and all the figurines that adorn them. This initial process takes time, and it’s the most costly way to build clocks, but it’s what distinguishes Loetscher from the rest.

The finished clock bodies are then brought to their assembly plant in Kreuzlingen, by the lake of Constance, where the clockworks, music boxes and gears that enable the figurines to move are assembled and positioned into the clocks. And then finally, the weights and pendulums are added, completing the last steps of assembly.
