Welcome to the Westclox Clock, Watch and Document Database! Here you can see production dates, original retail prices and other information about vintage and antique Westclox clocks and watches.

I have more catalogs to upload soon, and more Big Ben and Baby Ben and other Westclox alarm clocks to photograph and post.

Styles and Style Series

There are many Westclox alarm clock models named Big Ben. Richard Tjarks introduced styles to organize them into groups of similar models. For example, Big Ben Style 1 and Style 1a are the leg model, and Style 2 is the first base model. Style 10 is the last numbered Big Ben style, and there are other styles with names instead of numbers. These styles constitute the Big Ben Style Series. Similarly, Baby Ben and other Westclox clocks and watches have been assigned styles. Gary Biolchini added more style series in his book Westclox - An Identification and Price Guide, and I added even more in 2012. See the top of this page for a current list of Westclox style series.

United States Westclox Data

My data for production dates and clock variations came from products and catalogs of the USA. The clocks produced in Canada and other Westclox locations have different variations that I don't have access to and the time to research. Some of the Style production dates for the other locations (especially for the Big Ben and Baby Ben) are very similar.
