John Arnold made the most accurate pocket watch in the world. Every Monday for over a century, the Belville family carried it across London — calibrated at Greenwich, accurate to a tenth of a second.
Jewellers, clockmakers, and institutions would pay to have their own timepieces set against it. The Belvilles didn’t manufacture anything. They sold the right time to the people who needed it.
They weren’t selling a watch. They were recovering time. That’s what we do.
