The Synchronome Company
The Synchronome Company, established in 1895 by Frank Hope-Jones and George Bennett Bowell, became one of Britain’s most influential manufacturers of precision electric clocks. Specialising in master clock systems, Synchronome revolutionised timekeeping with their innovative mechanisms, which distributed accurate time signals across large networks. Their clocks found widespread use in observatories, railway stations, and public buildings, becoming synonymous with reliability and precision.
One of their crowning achievements was the development of the Shortt–Synchronome free pendulum clock, created in collaboration with horologist William Hamilton Shortt. Released in the 1920s, this was the most accurate pendulum clock of its time and was used as the primary time standard in many observatories worldwide, solidifying Synchronome’s reputation for technical excellence.
Rivalry with Gents of Leicester
Synchronome’s rise to prominence brought them into fierce competition with another titan of the industry—Gents of Leicester. Both companies vied for dominance in the electric clock market, offering master clock systems that set the standard for accuracy and reliability. While Gents focused on robust, functional designs that served a wide range of public and industrial applications, Synchronome honed its reputation in scientific and observatory-grade timekeeping.
The rivalry spurred innovation, with each company striving to outdo the other in design, precision, and reliability. Gents became renowned for its large-scale installations in landmarks like Waterloo Station and the Houses of Parliament, while Synchronome distinguished itself with pioneering technology, particularly in the field of astronomical timekeeping. This competitive dynamic not only elevated the standards of timekeeping in the early 20th century but also left a legacy of exceptional craftsmanship and innovation that collectors and enthusiasts value today.
Synchronome Clocks: A Timeless Legacy
Today, reclaimed Synchronome clocks are treasured for their industrial design and historical significance. Known for their sturdy construction and clean, minimalist style, these clocks are perfect for adding vintage charm to modern interiors. Whether it’s a classic Synchronome master clock...
