The Place Where We Try to Stay 100 Years Behind the Times. John Bouwman Clockmaker buys, sells, and repairs antique and modern clocks and watches as well as fountain pens. Since 1972 our old-fashioned commitment to quality and service has earned us a loyal customer base. We always strive to do the best possible work and to provide our customers with the best service. John Bouwman Clockmaker sells and services some of the finest timekeepers made. Our clock restorations bring value back to family heirlooms. It is not uncommon for customers to ask us the age of the oldest clock in the shop or for John Bouwman to work on a clock that is 300 years old. This shop was established in 1972 and the owner, John Bouwman, has just as many years of experience in the clock and watch industry. Continually seeking to upgrade his skills, John recently attended training seminars in Switzerland. John Bouwman is certified by the provincial government as a watchmaker.
