About Us
EXPERIENCE
I began training in 1974 with Bill Reid, Charlotte’s watch, clock and jewelry repairman. Bill’s father was also a watch repairman in Charlotte in the late 1800s to early 1900s. Over the years I worked for 3 different clock shops until I was able to open my own business, Lentz Clock Repair in 2000.
