ABOUT CHAMP'S CLOCK SHOP Champ's Clock Shop has been family owned and operated in it's original location since 1967. Our "Out in the Country" location and low overhead allow us to provide a larger selection of high quality clocks at a much better price to the consumer. The company was started as a hobby by William Jerry (Champ) Champion , an Airforce Veteran of the Cuban Mistle Crisis Era, Serving as a crash rescue fireman in the USA at SAC MacDill Air Base in Tampa and in Morocco at Nouasseur and Sidi Slimane Air Bases. This opened the door for employment with City of Atlanta Fire Department at Station 24 at Atlanta International Airport as a fire fighter specializing in Crash Rescue. During employment with the City of Atlanta, In spare time he began repairing clocks out of a couple lockers at the station and through word of mouth grew to the World's Largest & Finest Selection of clocks. The company name originally was a nick name (Champ) given to Mr.Champion by his fellow firemen and jokingly the locker he was working out of was referred to as "Champ's Clock Shop". That was a long time ago. Jeff Champion, Champ's son began helping in the business with trade show setups, deliveries and was cheif tool hander since 1976.
