About Us



Welcome to **www.timeandtrends.com**—formerly known as The Watch Doctor.

We are a family-owned business with a rich horological history, rooted in our passion for timepieces and weather instruments. Founded in 1997, we have over 20 years of experience in the watch industry, and since 2008, we’ve proudly served as a trusted distributor of Fischer Instruments from Germany. Our relationship with Fischer has been a cornerstone of our business, allowing us to bring you high-quality barometers, tide clocks, and weather stations that are renowned for their precision and craftsmanship.

As a family team, led by myself, Cameron, and my wife, Nicola, we understand the value of providing products that are both unique and functional. Our two families work together to offer a diverse selection of watches and weather instruments that cater to both everyday needs and special occasions.

We offer everything from practical nurses’ watches to durable work watches designed for those with demanding jobs. Looking for a meaningful gift, look at our hand made Station clocks? Our pocket watches make a perfect choice for men and women, whether it's a wedding gift for your groomsmen or bridesmaids or a special thank-you for a loved one.

We also take pride in our extensive collection of weather instruments, including our well-regarded Fischer barometers and tide clocks, which help you make informed decisions about the weather and tides—perfect for sailors, adventurers, or anyone passionate about nature’s rhythms.

Most of our products are carefully sourced from Europe and England, and we invite you to explore our collection, including our direct supplier relationship with Fischer Instruments in East Germany. Our commitment to quality and service ensures you receive only the best products for your needs.

Thank you for visiting Time & Trends. We look forward to continuing our tradition of excellence and offering you the finest in watches and weather instruments.
