About us

Welcome to Smith of Derby.

We have been leaders in the expression of time for over 150 years; creating and maintaining time across the globe, the depth and diversity of our business is vast. From the smallest village church clock to the some of the world’s most famous iconic time pieces you’ll find that Smith of Derby is proud to be involved.

Our rich heritage means that we can bring our expertise to bear on everything from the restoration of the oldest clock to the dynamic creation of a stunning new design featuring the latest technology.

You will see from our work that there’s nothing about time that we don’t know; however there is one thing that sets us even further apart and underpins everything we do - our passion for time. Talk to us today and be inspired.
