The George McNeil Potomac Guild is one of three local guilds conveniently located throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia. This group of fellow horologists includes professional tradespeople, hobbyists, collectors and enthusiasts who share an interest in time and timepieces -- clocks, watches, or both. We meet on a regular basis in Fairfax city to help one another to better understand a variety of aspects of the art and science of horology. Featured presentations have included watch- and clockmakers from the local area and surrounding states. The Potomac Guild has sponsored a clock repair class in Northern Virginia since the 1980s. Hundreds of students have gotten their start in clock repair through the tremendous resources of the course – instructors, tools, facility and fellow students
