I have several very young clock enthusiasts, many have visited our store. It is always nice to see a young one with this interest. Several children over many years have continued to visit the shop and are avid clock collectors today. Now their new families are being immersed with the love of clocks as well. Thank you for the post. We appreciate you watching. Give your son a big hug from all of us here at Champ's.
Many would consider that a living hell, but to me, it is HEAVEN! (except for the few chiming off key notes). It is like being in London with the clock tower ringing Big Ben whilst nearby such as West Minster Abby setting off simultaniously. It is an absolute orchestra of time and synchronisity! Brilliant!!!!
I'm a serious antique clock collector and I have never ever heard or seen an Emporium full of chiming clocks like this. Simply Amazing...sounds like a full symphony orchestra warming up lol. Very Good Show indeed!
This is someone with a phobia of clock's hell...lol, so many sounds all at once. The way you were running around with the camera made it look like somone running around like saying in their head "Oh my god, how do I get away from all these clocks!? AHHHH"
This is incredible and reminiscent to my childhood being around antique clocks. This however, seems like a living nightmare, but it's amazing to capture the moment.
I remember seeing this video when I was 10 and was just learning about the wonderful world of clocks, now I’m 24 and still love them. I hope I can visit y’all someday
My heaven! I collect clocks! My cousin & i have collected exactly 1273 clocks, all hanging and chiming in my house! It got full, and we had to hang 288 in my uncle's house! Thumbs up!
Similar to many conversations at our store. When I was a kid, I'd come home from a date and walk through the shop in the dark, I kept waiting for one to lean over and say something. It was like they were alive and trying to stand real still so I wouldn't notice they were there. Its an experience to sleep on the floor listning to all that too. Of course I am Immune.
0:04 This clock playing the incredibly noisy tune has officially been identified after a long 16 years!!! This is the elusive CITIZEN 「コムニC」, a primitive clock series from the late 1980s of simple wall clocks that contained a special celebratory message in the bottom that could also be switched out for other messages or a custom handwritten message, while playing a very primitive monophonic-beeper tune on the hour. 3 models are known to exist, A B and C respectively. If I recall, a video of the B model is on UA-cam, and it plays “Congratulations” from Cliff Richard. However, the C model popped up for sale recently on a Japanese website, and someone actually bought it. It’s pink, and has a picture of 2 birds and a pink piano, while playing the theme from Love Story. That’s the tune you hear blaring in the background for the first seconds. Unfortunately I don’t think it’s visible in the video, but this model is INCREDIBLY rare and obscure and it’s crazy to know that Champ’s was carrying them at some point [possibly even an overseas version!?!]
1:02 the clock playing this melody is a rhythm model of some kind. i'm going to guess multiple models have this song, but i found it by complete accident while watching a video of "4MJ808EJ".
Infact i was there some time ago I was blown away by a lot of clocks i was just blown away by those clocks it was just so amazing I have to say it’s incredible thanks so much mr and Mrs champion
This is one amazing business,, love this store, will also recommend this store to any of my family and friends. Love all the clocks displayed for sale. Very reasonable priced for the upcoming Holidays.
You can just Imagine how it is to work in it everyday.. well at least for a week. Normally we only run a few dozen. Took us 4 days to wind and set these to the same time. Thanks to all for your comments.
Tons of mechanical, electronic, electronically recorded [chimes], bell, chime rod, tubular bell, and of course musical clocks all going off simultaneously? I’d love this! Some people call this a living hell, and I can totally understand that. But my grandfather was a clockmaker and repairer, so I picked up my love for clocks from him. Oh, and I forgot to mention that WHOLE WALL OF CUCKOO CLOCKS you passed by there at one point. That’s a LOT of cuckoo clocks!
Believe it or not. I am surrounded by these clocks every day and until the day I recorded this I had never heard anything like this before. We caught ourselves in a state of awe in our own world. Thanks for your comments.
I was about to jump out of my seat in the theater in that scene about 24 years ago. It was a sight oh so familiar but rarely seen. Doc Brown and Back to the Future, and The opening scene from The Time Machine are the only time I can remember seeing so many clocks in a film. Thanks
Almost sounds like royalty just got married! lol Wow..now that's quite a clock shop! Amazing all the different styles that have been made all these generations!
On thing is for shore I know I would get a head ache from all those clocks chiming at the same time but they are cool and thank you for sharing that video on the air even so all those clocks would give a Head ache I still enjoyed it
This Saturday march 8th, You can hear it LIVE at our 2nd annual chimes of 1000 clocks Spring forward Daylight Savings time Event. I did film noon but too many folks in the shop to show off the clocks. Come and Listen!
If you watch this video and you get over excited, would you be moved and sobbing happily 😢 That is how I feel towards a lot of things going at the same time. If I go into a clock store, I would start to cry with happiness 😭
It took 4 of us 4 days to sync all the clocks and the last day half a day to touch up. Anything with a pendulum was set earlier to a set time then just started the pendulums swinging to make it easier.
imagine how many decibels it would be if you put every chiming clock in the world that has ever existed that includes clock towers in one very large room :-) that would hurt
I agree,, the little clock dominated the scene, I have ,, because of YOU,,I loaded another video with less of the little off key screamer and more of just peak hour chiming of mechanical clocks. Please check it out...THanks for watching.
This is incredible! I have over 100 clocks and I thought I was bad. Now I see my collection is but a grain of sand on the beach! This is awesome! This proves you can NEVER have too many clocks, LOL. Where is your store located? This is worth a special trip!
So my grandfather was a watchmaker and he owned a jewelry store in the 1960s early '70s so that's what it was like at 5 now I never heard 6 because he closed the store at 5 p.m. so we would go home after that so I can't tell you what it sounded like at 6:00
most real clocks chime from either, every 15 min. , each half hour or, just on the hour. This is why its called a clock. If a clock doesn't chime its a Watch, cause that is what you have to do to tell the time, watch it.. Thanks for your comment
I LOVE THE CLOCKS!!! Cannot get enough of the video LOVE it!! I got two cuckoo clocks and a grandfather clock :) How much for those bigger cuckoo clocks just about the doorway in the same room with the largest cuckoo clock? They look awesome!
Don't forget to set all of your clocks back 1 hour this fall, for Daylight Savings Time. You'll gain an hour of sleep, but will spend 2 weeks adjusting all of these! :)
All u need is 2 wear an armful of wristwatches 2 check the exact time in a clock shop, count down the seconds 2 exactly 12 o'clock, then all these clocks strike the hour. Make sure all ur wristwatches r synchronized!

This video is so awesome the fact you have them all chiming is good for the customers making them all interested.
It's like walking into a bad dream

Best multiclock chime experience ever! Very cool - Pink Floyd, eat your heart out!
Ticking away, the moments that make up a dull day

quite spooky really, just imagine if it was midnight, it would sound like the stuff of nightmares

Never in my life have I heard sweeter music to my ears...or seen anything more amazing!!!
Sounds like an amusement park at 0:25 😂

it’s under the channel メモリーりょうちゃん or something like that the video has a weird title but it’s there
lmao this is such a legendary video for me...hits different 12 years later when ur stuck in quarantine. miss all of you guys
OH DEAR GOD..it's like a NIGHTMARE!
1:02 the clock playing this melody is a rhythm model of some kind. i'm going to guess multiple models have this song, but i found it by complete accident while watching a video of "4MJ808EJ".
the song itself is a debussy piece "petite suite" the first movement "En Bateau"
Infact i was there some time ago I was blown away by a lot of clocks i was just blown away by those clocks it was just so amazing I have to say it’s incredible thanks so much mr and Mrs champion
If only there was a way to sneak this many clocks into someones room in the middle of the night for a crazy wakeup call by morning...
You could say I’d be absolutely *terrified* If I came there, but your shop is so lovely! Maybe I’ll stop by one day to check it out! :D
aint no wayyy this is the realest shit i've seen
I want one of those Grandfather Clocks. You really don't see them any where! Beautiful Pieces of Time.
OH my god, I'm in love with that clock to the right in the first couple of seconds in the video. Its beautiful!
What a truly beautiful clock shop. I'd be there every day if there a was a shop like that in my area. Well done.

I love grandfather clocks! When they chime, it’s like they are singing to you it’s beautiful 2:40 4:29❤ I literally hug mine 😂
This sounds so beautiful!
It's wonderfull!!!!
I love grandfather clocks!!!
My dream is to have one!!!

I imagine how does it feels coming home after a day of work with all that bells in the ears.
Almost sounds like royalty just got married! lol Wow..now that's quite a clock shop! Amazing all the different styles that have been made all these generations!
Wow, what a selection of clocks! I wish this place were in my state.
The wall of sound is just pure surreality... KUDOS!
On thing is for shore I know I would get a head ache from all those clocks chiming at the same time but they are cool and thank you for sharing that video on the air even so all those clocks would give a Head ache I still enjoyed it
Dont wanna know how it is for the neighbours at midnight
Hi Champ! Good to see you here.
4 days straight to get them all together,, thanks
1:13 Sounds like a nightmare
This is awesome 1000 clocks going off at once it is my dream
Thank You, Douglassville, PA Huh? Thanks for watching. We had fun setting up for this for sure. Champ
Wow, what an amazing video. That must have taken ages to set all those clocks to all go off at the same time!
What a delightful racket! :D

Actual sound of my mind at 3 am.
This is so scary and beautiful.
If there's a heaven, I hope it's just like this shop.
I was actually thinking of the First Time Machine with Rod Taylor,,, Ya need to see that one.
O....M....G....the most amazing clock store in the world!!! It's beyond belief!!
Wow, that's really cool! I never knew there even was such a type of clock. I'll go check it out on the other video. Thanks! :)
This is so cool 😎 😆
If you watch this video and you get over excited, would you be moved and sobbing happily 😢 That is how I feel towards a lot of things going at the same time. If I go into a clock store, I would start to cry with happiness 😭
Ahhh Thier talking to each other 🤣
That was really cool! I love clocks. When you said turn up the volume I thought it was going to be a screamer, lol.
Employee: *falls asleep during night shift*
Clocks: I’m about to end this man’s whole career
LMAO
Thank You so much for the feedback.. Glad you enjoyed it.
It took 4 of us 4 days to sync all the clocks and the last day half a day to touch up. Anything with a pendulum was set earlier to a set time then just started the pendulums swinging to make it easier.
what a clock shop!! if i won the lottery, i'd come down there and drain every last clock out of this store.
imagine how many decibels it would be if you put every chiming clock in the world that has ever existed that includes clock towers in one very large room :-) that would hurt
caseyjonesfan I would love to see that
Fablewolf what about the Its A Small World Clock Tower?????
Reminds me of the movie Pinocchio in which all of Geppetto’s clocks go off all at once 😅
That was unexpectedly awesome!
You should have filmed at noon so they would chime longer. lol
Lonely cukoo clock chiming in there somewhere lol.
That sounds like in a horror thing. My sister was like 'OMG!' This is amazing.
That's kinda creepy but I like it.
I would guess it is a light reflection that blurred the video pickup. If not that, Im not sure.
I had 15 clocks striking / chiming / cuckooing / etc in my flat at one time, but I put some away because I thought there were too many!
About 4 days to wind all the clocks but if you really wanted to pen it down, about 20 hours of constant winding.
This is vecna's evil lair
>:[
Would love to learn how to build one of these beautiful timepieces, from a real master. would have loved to do this for a living.
yep, It kinda does or if you are a Back to the Future fan, as I am. When Doc Brown's Clocks go off at the beginning of the movie. Thanks, Champ

@@kathleenhome5546Indeed it almost did!
Sorry for the late reply
I could hear the Rhythm Country Jamboree clock going off.
Haha. Nice. Almost sounds like that part in a scary movie when some thing is about to happen or when someone is dazed or confused
Sounds like a Pink Floyd intro on steroids!
Wow, clock heaven!
This is magnificent I want to cry 😭
I mean moved to tears 💙
I PROMISE
So my grandfather was a watchmaker and he owned a jewelry store in the 1960s early '70s so that's what it was like at 5 now I never heard 6 because he closed the store at 5 p.m. so we would go home after that so I can't tell you what it sounded like at 6:00
That would drive me insane. As it was just watching the video I thought I was on some really pote shit. And one more thing. Who winds all those?
A clock band symphony!
This Chiming event is happening again on Saturday March 13 2010, see champ's clock shop on facebook to rsvp for the event and info.
I think this is heaven
That's a lot of clocks..... then you've got those awful digital chimes mixed in there
Thank god im not the only one who absolutely hates digitally chiming clocks
