HOROLOGY - The Index

WARNING This website has NOT been systematically updated in recent time. While many of the resources listed are still available, some of the websites have been moved or have disapeared. The owner of the website does not have the time currently to check the validity of all links. We suggest you do a google search for items with dead links to find current URL's.

This page and subsidiary webpages attempt to provide a comprehensive Index and Crosslinks to as much Horological Information on the WWW as possible. Although I am backlogged for updating I hope I will eventually get there.

Internet Resources regarding Horology:

Notice: The National Clock and Watch Museum has reopened on October 24, 1999 in Columbia, Pa. after a complete rebuild .
