History:
The Seth Thomas Clock Company began producing clocks in 1813, and was incorporated as the "Seth Thomas Clock Company" in 1853. Seth Thomas manufactured clock movements for the Self Winding Clock Company from 1886 thru the early 1890s. The Self Winding Clock Company manufactured the 4 dial clock in Grand Central Terminal and it was installed on the information kiosk in the main concourse in 1913. Seth Thomas Clock Company manufactured longcase clocks as well as mantel, wall, and table-top clocks during this period.In 1968 General Time Corporation, consisting of the Westclox and Seth Thomas brands and the Westclox operation in Canada, was acquired from Talley Industries. Westclox Canada was the only company that came close to matching the production of Canada's leading Clock company, The Arthur Pequegnat Clock Company.Seth Thomas Clock Company was later owned by the Colibri Group. The company ceased operations on January 16, 2009 and went into receivership, but returned to business as of May 4, 2009 under the ownership of CST Enterprises in Cranston, Rhode Island. No manufacturing is underway, however an entire line of Seth Thomas Clocks is now available made by another clock builder for CST under the Seth Thomas brand.
