July 2026 Horological Journal

7 July 2026

This month we feature on the covers a variety of objects reminding us of the unique influence that the United States of America and her peoples have had on the world of horology. These include a Charles Frodsham minute repeating grande sonnerie clock watch with tourbillon, perpetual calendar, and moon phases, sold in 1917 in New York, and a ‘Tiffany’ Patek Philippe Nautilus, produced in 2021 to celebrate the 170-year alliance between Patek Philippe and the American jeweller Tiffany & Co. Read HJ Editor Justin Koullapis’ article for free here:  Download the article for free here

Also in this issue, David Poole MBE FBHI continues his ‘Let’s make a clock’ series, and Douglas Bateman FBHI and Dr John Haine describe the Bateman Precision Pendulum Clock, which has been transferred to the Museum of Timekeeping. 

Below is a list of the articles available in the July edition of The Horological Journal.
