West Country Clock amp Watch Fairs

19 GBP

The next West Country Clock and Watch Fair will be held on 19th November, at the usual venue, The Holiday Inn, Taunton. The Fair was initially set up in 2006 by ‘Wessex Fairs’ and was successfully run for half a dozen years, being taken over by Mike Jones in 2012 who had, and will continue to have, his own stall at the Fairs. Mike has now retired from running the Fairs, and has very kindly handed the management over to The Bristol Branch of the British Horological Institute. For those of you who do not know, the Bristol Branch of the BHI are a friendly bunch of professionals and amateurs who meet once a month to discuss common horological interests. (More details can be found on the ‘Bristol Branch’ Tab of our website www.westcountryclockfairs.co.uk). It is our intention to keep the Fairs very much in their current format, but also increase the numbers of visitors and stall holders to ensure continuing successful and enjoyable events.
So if you are looking for a beautiful classic-style wristwatch by a quality maker from a period of hand craftsmanship, or maybe a majestic mahogany cased grandfather clock made in Somerset, please come and join us on 19th November. There will be hundreds of fine items of horology on display and for sale, and there has been no better time to invest in something as exciting to own.
You will find dealers and genuine collectors, ready to sell or swap, or simply chat. If you have had difficulty in finding a repairer, then will find them here too! These modest size Fairs always have a superb atmosphere of friendliness and helpful advice, and it is a pleasure to see so many stunning clocks and watches of all types and ages. We will be holding 2 events Next year, Sunday 22nd April and Sunday 25th November, 2018 so make a note in your diary. More details can be found on the weblink above. If you have not been to a Fair at The Holiday Inn Taunton before - then it will make a lovely day out, and a warm welcome is.
