Successful clock purchase

I purchased a beautiful combination carriage clock from Paul Kemberry Antiques. A wonderful experience, I phoned Paul to discuss my potential purchase. Paul located the clock for me and answered all my questions which gave me great confidence in buying the item.
It arrived extremely well packed and exactly as described.
I would have no hesitation in buying another clock off Paul and would recommend anyone who is contemplating buying an antique clock to review Paul Kemberry Antiques website.
Also, buy with confidence because you will get a 12 month written guarantee.

Amazing experience!

Amazing experience! I made a purchase order from Perth Australia, Paul Kembery made the whole experience so easy. He was fast, efficient and had brilliant communication through out the whole experience. The carriage clock is beautiful! It arrived well packaged in perfect working order with all its papers and clear instructions for looking after the clock. We are thrilled with our product. Excellent service, would not hesitate to recommend.

Proof that old-school service is still important

Paul really made sure that everything was conducted, prepared and managed to ensure a totally professional delivery and installation. Even though in my case his team was not able to by physically present for my address in northern Germany, the quality of packaging, selection of courier, and step-by-step guidance was exemplary. His solid reputation can be trusted.

Throughout all my dealings with…

Throughout all my dealings with Kembury, they have been 100% professional, totally transparent and most of all conduct their business with honesty and integrity. I would not hesitate in recommending them to anybody who wishes to buy or sell a wide range of clocks or watches.

Excellent and courteous service. Very trustworthy and reliable. Outstanding quality of the watches purchased. Purchase can be made without any problems and without having seen the goods in the original beforehand.
Highly recommended!

An outstanding firm

I have been a customer of Kembery Antique Clocks for nearly 30 years. Over three decades, and in all my dealings with them, I have found the firm to be consistently straightforward, reliable, and friendly. The range of timepieces it offers is remarkable (and fascinating as it maps 300 years and more of domestic and personal timekeeping). Its prices are very fair and compare more than well with other specialist firms. I bought my first clock from them in the early 1990s, and have just bought my fourth! They have all proved to be very good investments but, much more important than that, they have each provided pleasure and delight – they are antiques that, in their movement and sound, live in a way that most other antiques do not.

But Kembery Antique Clocks does more than sell excellent clocks and watches, it also provides post-sale care and maintenance. This ensures peace of mind and also brings Paul or his son Daniel back to talk entertainingly with wide-ranging knowledge about their subject. I have learnt much from them. I gather that they have recently been maintaining the clocks in Number 1, Royal Crescent Museum, and the Herschel Museum, both in Bath. This does not surprise me at all.

You will have gathered how impressed I am by Kembery Antique Clocks. I cannot think of another firm that I have dealt with consistently for some 30 years, or one that has never let me down.

Just purchased my second watch from Dan. Over the moon with both watches. Latest one is better than I’d imagined and keeps perfect time.
Purchased a fusee clock from Paul a few years ago, yet again a smashing clock at a reasonable price
If you want a good vintage watch or clock look no further than these guys. Great to deal with and go the extra mile.
Thanks again gents.

MANY YEARS OF EXCELLENT INTERACTIONS WITH KEMBERY CLOCKS

I have interacted with Paul Kembery, and more recently Daniel also, for many years. During that time, I have purchased a superb antique wall clock and, somewhat more recently, an antique grandfather clock. Both clocks continue to provide much pleasure on a daily basis. In much more recent months, I therefore had no hesitation whatsoever in seeking Paul's assistance in performing a full and careful refurbishment of another family-owned antique grandfather clock and its subsequent installation at my elder daughter's home. That project has also now been completed very successfully. I therefore definitely plan to continue my close interactions with Kembery Clocks and have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending the company most highly.

I have recently bought an antique drop dial wall clock from Paul Kembery.I was so pleased with this purchase that I asked Paul to take a look at another antique clock that I have. This clock needed a repair and some "gentle"restoration to the dial. I am absolutely delighted
with this work and the friendly treatment I have received
from Paul and his son Daniel - thank you both very much.

Sale of my 18k repeater chronograph

Kembery purchased my 18k gold repeater chronograph pocket watch. The process was simple, hassle-free and professional with a fair price offered and fast payment. Excellent communication also, a pleasure working with them.

Great Service

Kembery Antique Clocks has it all! I let them service my old grandfather's clock. It has been with us for almost 50 years for it was a treasured item. Unfortunately, it stopped working and we were too afraid to fix it ourselves- we might damage it further. Luckily, Kembery has our back and restored it back to functionality! They even polished it and it looks brand new!

Great collection

Great collection of watches. I like your many clocks and design. On that, I like the wall to watch. Greate design and really unique or antique. The price is also good. The design and material of the clock are sturdy. Thanks for the service.

Naples Florida 1937 Omega

Naples Florida. I was searching for a birth year watch (1937) and did not trust eBay. I found the watch I wanted at Kembery Antique clocks in the UK. Excellent and very prompt service from Paul and Daniel. Only one phone call and the watch was mine. Watch arrived here in the US in excellent condition and was everything I imagined.
