By the late 1800s, you no longer had to live in a big city to own a watch. Corner jewelry stores were opening all across America, filling their cases with timepieces, watch chains, silverware, and even eyeglasses. These shops became trusted fixtures of their communities and often provided on-site watch and clock repairs for their neighbors. #NAWCC #NationalWatchandClockMuseum #Horology #Clocks #PocketWatch� | National Watch & Clock Museum
