Why choose Father Time Antiques?

What makes us different than many other watch and clock sellers that you see on the internet, is our level of commitment to the restoration process. We purposely set our standards high so that our customers can rely upon Father Time Antiques to deliver only the best available in the Vintage and Antique watch market. The first step in the process is to select only the watches and clocks that are in the best "as found" condition. In order to do this we work with contacts all over the globe who are constantly on the look out for prime pieces that we can restore and then offer to our customer base. We also attend regional, and national, watch and clock shows under the aegis of the National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors organization. We have been members of this seminal organization since 1980 and have done business with dealers around the world for over 36 years. We also comb the internet looking for those choice pieces that have not been on the market for many generations and, because we are a "bricks and mortar" store, we can also acquire timepieces over the counter from private collections and past customers.

Omega "Dynamic"


This Omega "Dynamic" is a New/Old Stock (NOS) automatic wristwatch from 1970 that was never sold, and is in brand new condition! After being in business for over 37 years we have just recently uncovered 4, count 'em, 4 NOS watches.

This Omega has a caliber 565 automatic movement that is Rat Pack worthy and is looking and running "Like New" because it is. The case is stainless steel and measures 41mm at its widest point, by 45mm lug to lug. Not only is this an opportunity to see what a NOS watch looks like, but you can actually own it and feel like you have been transported back in time. 
The condition is flawless, and the configuration is spectacular. Note the black dial, contrasting steel hands, markers, and the dramatic red/orange sweep second hand. The oval shaped case really gives it the look of the era with a date window to boot. The screw-down back shows none of the egregious case opener marks that you often see on used models...because this one is pristine.

  Notice the cool brushed factory finish on the case and how happy Dean and Frank are because they are appearing with it! If you "do it your way" you won't let this one pass you by...we may never find another "Omega Dynamic" in this condition!
