Worshipful Company of Clockmakers
Despite its ancient history the Clockmakers' Company includes a majority of members who are still involved in horology, whether clock making, watch making, designing, buying, selling, collecting, repairing, restoring, conserving or using for scientific purposes. The Company still provides a forum where those interested in horology (whether modern or antiquarian) can meet. It still encourages the trade, still promotes excellence and (through its charities) promotes education and training. It runs occasional craft competitions and awards its Tompion Gold medal for exceptional achievement in horology worldwide.
