If you ask a passerby on the street to tell you what time it is, he/she will respond by looking at the cell phone. In these circumstances, are the watchmakers still necessary and requested?  Are there any more watches repair shops, now that the invasion of cheap, bad quality products is everywhere? Who needs a clock, an alarm clock or a watch when your mobile phone can wake you up in the morning and schedule your meetings? The answer is simple: a watch is not yet old-fashioned. When you wear a nice, elegant business suit, a beautiful, good quality watch, is in order. And if it does not last for a lifetime, when it crashes you need to take it to watch repairs Worcestershire. Usually, such a craft goes hand in hand with another one, which is also very rare and difficult to find, that of jewellers Worcestershire.

Nowadays wristwatches began to be replaced increasingly (to extinction) by the LCD display of clocks and watches in shopping malls, in major shopping centres, in markets, from tablets and mobile phones, that you cannot help but asking yourself: “What is going to happen to the watch making industry and what makes a man wear a watch on his wrist anymore”? Technology is advancing at high speed, mankind is heading rapidly toward something, so nobody seems to be currently interested in the evolution of watches or what will happen in the future with them if globalization includes the watches we wear or the ones that we would  like most to wear. The fact is that nowadays watches are not used for their original purpose anymore; they became more like an accessory that people prefer to wear at special moments and that are used to represent their social status and "financial potency ". Only time and the future will show us the truth.

For watchmakers and watch repairs Worcestershire based specialists horology means tradition and passion, a fascinating combination of technique and art. For repairing and restoring clocks and watches, in addition to technical training, a living soul is needed, with dedication and patience in each watch until it is as good as new. From the history of horology we can see that people have always wanted timekeeping instruments but also art objects, in the same mixture of mechanics and jewellery; today, with all technological progress, classical watch making is successfully preferred.

In addition to the mechanical parts, an old watch or clock contains the soul of those who have crafted it many years ago and that of the owners it belonged to. Who knows how many life stories with drama and joy the clock has experienced with its equal and balanced ticking. Therefore such pieces are worthwhile keeping carefully.

The same places where people go to have their watches repaired and mended also host other specialists – the jewellers. They are specialized in crafting and repairing jewellery, which are also very precious art pieces which can be transmitted from generation to generation. Jewels are special accessories that add beauty and elegance through their appearance and value and they should be worn and kept considering their fragility. Their beauty, brilliance and value may be lost if these special items are not properly cared for. Jewels are objects that are not suitable to be worn constantly; jewellers Worcestershire recommended their clients to remove jewellery pieces when they get home or when they do various chores.
