     "We Fix What Ticks"

A visit to Madison will uncover a secret that’s been ticking in Middle Tennessee since 1985 ----- Nashville Clock.  At Nashville Clock, located at 809 Gallatin Rd. S., customers will find the only remaining full-time sales, service and repair clock shop in Davidson County, as well as most surrounding counties. 



     Serving clock lovers since 1970, owners Ric and Pam Gatling began their business in a 60 square foot renovated chicken shed in Spring City, Pennsylvania.  Forty years later, they now own a 2300 square foot commercial building that houses hundreds of fine clocks.  Ric and Pam have built their business on two premises -- that customers’ interest always comes first, and that clocks are the heartbeat of every home.

     “With each resounding tick, a clock reminds us that time is precious,” Ric says.  "A fine clock is most often handed down from generation to generation," he notes, and with hundreds of clocks of all types in his store – including grandfather, wall, mantel and cuckoo, Ric’s one-of-a-kind place offers customers the rare opportunity to acquire a piece of history.  There is something for every décor, from country oak and elegant cherry or mahogany, to contemporary black and pewter.

     When talking to Ric, it doesn’t take long to feel the exuberance and see the passion that he has for his work.  “After all, I do spend about 60 hours a week at my business", he says, "and I make people happy – I sell them a timeless treasure, or I fix the one they already have.”

     The treasure of Ric and Pam's life are their children and grandchildren, at which point Ric says, "It's a good thing they take after their mother."  See the page What Really Matters
