National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors – Craft Competition

An avid collector of pocket watches, Craig Duling serves as the creator of www.heritagepocketwatch.com. His website allows him to share his interest in timepieces and educate the public about the rich history of clocks and watches. Additionally, Craig Duling is a member of the National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors (NAWCC). 

The National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors is dedicated to the art and science of timekeeping. Its members work to preserve timepieces and their heritage, provide timepiece education, and pay respect to the long-held tradition of creating mechanical clocks and pocket watches. 

Each year, the NAWCC hosts a national convention in order to celebrate timepieces and the people who love them. Attendees can view and learn more about a wide range of clocks and other horological items at this exciting event.

The convention also features a Crafts Competition, an event for the artists who build, restore, and decorate timepieces. This contest includes 27 categories that cover everything from clock movements to cosmetic details like gold leafing. There is also a special People's Choice Award, that honors attendees favorite timepiece each year.
