Old Time Clock Shop is a locally owned and operated Lubbock business with decades of experience in clock repair, sales, and service.

An incredible rarity of horological and astronomical significance, this stunning planetary clock was crafted by the renowned Parisian clockmaker Zacharie-Nicholas-Amé-Joseph Raingo. Raingo is celebrated as being the most important creator of orrery clocks in the 19th century, and the quality and beauty of the present timepiece is certainly a testament to that fact.Often referred to as an ‘orrery,’ Raingo’s planetary clocks can be more accurately classified as ‘tellurium’ clocks. This is because the mechanism shows more than just the movement of planetary bodies in our solar system; it quite precisely illustrates how day, night and seasons are caused by the movements of the Earth, moon and sun.View more details on our website.
