From our family shop to your home
We are a family‑run clockshop operating since 1973. For three generations we’ve worked with local carvers and movement makers to handpick and commission clocks that honor traditional designs while meeting modern expectations for shipping and service.

How it works — choosing the right movement
Which movement is right for you?
1‑Day Mechanical: Traditional, authentic cuckoo — requires daily winding; loud, charming cuckoo call.
8‑Day Mechanical: Wind once a week; ideal if you prefer less frequent maintenance while keeping true mechanical character.
Quartz: Battery‑operated, minimal maintenance, quieter cuckoo — perfect for bedrooms or small apartments.
How to choose: If you want the most authentic experience and plan to care for a clock, choose mechanical. If you prefer low maintenance, choose quartz. Unsure? Contact our family experts for a free 10‑minute consultation.
Why our clocks are an investment, not an expense
A true Black Forest cuckoo clock is a piece of mechanical craftsmanship designed to last generations. Our clocks combine certified German movements, hand‑carved wood, and family inspection — components you don’t get from mass imports.
Included with every purchase:
- VdS certificate for qualifying models
- Reinforced crate + insured shipping
- Free lifetime phone & email setup support from our specialists
- Option for repairs via approved service stations worldwide
Compare: a mass‑produced decorative clock may cost less now, but it will not retain value or repairability decades from now.
Frequently asked Questions
Yes. Our mechanical models are hand‑carved in the Black Forest region and hand‑assembled in Germany. Qualifying mechanical clocks include a VdS authenticity certificate.

Yes. We use custom wooden crates, shock‑absorbent foam and insured courier services. We also offer pre‑shipping packing photos and tracked delivery with signature.
Shipping is calculated at checkout. Customs duties and local VAT depend on your country and are usually the buyer’s responsibility, but we provide full documentation and can help estimate USA import costs.
Typical USA delivery is 10–18 business days. Every package is tracked and requires a signature. Europe 3–7 business days; other regions 12–28 business days.
No. We include clear instructions and free lifetime phone/email support. For mechanical clocks, basic winding and setting take 5–10 minutes to learn. Short video tutorials are available and we’ll step you through live.
Mechanical cuckoos are louder with rich acoustic character; quartz models are quieter. Many models include an automatic night shut‑off lever — check each product page. If noise is a concern, we recommend an 8‑day mechanical with night shut‑off or a quartz model.
Yes. We offer lifetime troubleshooting by phone/email and coordinate repairs through certified service centers worldwide. For warranty repairs we either direct you to a local center or manage return shipping depending on the issue.
See “How it works — choosing the right movement” above. In short: mechanical for the most authentic experience, quartz for low maintenance. We’re happy to advise by phone if you’re unsure.
Each clock is handcrafted and therefore slightly unique. We represent each model as accurately as possible — and on request we can send photos of the exact piece before shipping.
