About James Mercier
I am a university graduate from Bristol with a keen interest in time and horology (the science of measuring time). My grandfather gave me my first watch when I was five years old - it was an Ingersoll watch with a luminous dial and I pestered him for ages to get me it. It must have been a catalyst as now, as well as keeping an eye on the Watches.org.uk team, I run a small business mending watches and timepieces. I also enjoy working out at the gym and playing five-a-side football with friends.
