Wittnauer, a distinguished watch brand, was established in 1880 by Swiss immigrant Albert Wittnauer in New York City. Recognizing a need for durable yet elegant timepieces that could be sold at a moderate price, Albert and his brothers began importing Swiss watch movements and assembling them in the United States. Over the years, Wittnauer developed a reputation for crafting reliable, precise watches that combined Swiss engineering with stylish American design sensibilities.
In the early 20th century, Wittnauer became known for its navigational watches and chronometers, which were used extensively by aviators and explorers. Notably, the brand was chosen as the official timekeeper for American expeditions and aviation feats, solidifying its status in the realm of precision timekeeping. Through the decades, Wittnauer has maintained a commitment to innovation and elegance, making it a trusted name in the watchmaking industry.
We know that your Wittnauer watch is important to you and understand that the sentimental value more often than not outweighs the monetary value. Our expert watchmakers strive to make sure your watch can be worn for many years to come.
Not only can we take preemptive measures to keep your watch running for a long time, but we can restore watches that have seen better days. We are willing to hunt for rare parts. We have done many repairs that others have given up on. No job is too big or too small and we can do any repair on any watch. Our repairs can be as simple as a battery change, pin replacement, or band replacement, and can be as complicated as a dial refinish, a band/case polish, movement clean and overhaul and even a complete restoration.
We have a simple process for mailing your watch to us, our estimates are free and we offer free return shipping via UPS or US Mail.
Times Ticking began in 1983 as a retail store and repair center for watches and clocks. We have expanded over the years to more retail stores and a separate repair center that accepts watches from all over the world. We have personalized customer service, which we are very proud of, and feel that this is what sets us apart. We have an extremely high customer satisfaction rate and also a high return customer rate.
