He took over the family clockmaking business 1776 aged twenty following the death of his father John, a most skilled and excellent clockmaker himself, and continued for another thirty-three years. He always fitted his movements with five pillars as opposed to the normal four and his painted dials were supplied by Wilson of Birmingham, one of the first to manufacture this style and considered one of the finest exponents. Watkin Owen died in April 1809.* Note For an in-depth study detailing the life, clocks and working practices of Watkin Owen see Colin & Mary Brown, The Clockmakers of Llanrwst, Bridge Books 1993.
