Mother’s Day Gift Ideas: Women’s Timepieces She’ll Love

On Mother’s Day, we honor and show appreciation for the maternal figures who have enriched our lives. We celebrate their dedication to family, their generosity of spirit and their unwavering love and support. We also pay tribute to the exceptional personal qualities that make them special and unique.

Finding a gift that embodies all these elements can be a challenge. With an exquisitely designed women’s timepiece from Chelsea Clock, you can express your gratitude and celebrate mom’s style by giving her a classic keepsake that can be passed down for generations.

Chelsea Clock has been handcrafting the finest engraved clocks, compasses and barometers since 1897. Throughout its renowned history as America’s premier clockmaker, the company’s customized timepieces have served as quintessential gifts of distinction for dignitaries and other notable figures. They make the perfect gift for all mothers at the heart of your family, from sisters and daughters to grandmothers and aunts.

Mother’s Day Engraving Options

Chelsea Clock’s world-class customization services allow you to offer presents that are truly one of a kind. Adding an engraving to one of our signature women’s timepieces is the perfect way to commemorate mom. A poem, proverb or other meaningful message can be inscribed onto a wide assortment of clock cases, while personalized engraved plates in solid brass and nickel can be affixed to the base of most clocks.

Available in 4-1/2-inch, six-inch and 8-1/2-inch dial sizes, they feature hand-silvered dials, forged-brass cases and gentle, rich-sounding chimes. They’re also designed with 290 precision brass parts and an 11-jewel movement to ensure accuracy and durability.
