Our History
In 1948 Elmer Kinley opened a simple watch repair shop in the Newberry section of Williamsport, PA.
Elmer’s sons, William and Gerald, began working at the shop at very young ages. Together, they learned all aspects of the business.
Gerald started full-time in 1968, and William started full-time in 1972.
In 1972, the family opened a second location on West 4th Street in Downtown Williamsport. We still proudly call this location home today.
After the death of their father in 1975, William and Gerald closed the Newberry location and consolidated their operations into one central shop in Williamsport.
Jared Kinley, son of Gerald and Debbie, is proud to be the third generation in this family business to serve the people of Williamsport.
Jared started working full-time in May 2005 and his Wife Jade recently joined the team as part of the amazing staff.
