A man in Madhya Pradesh’s Indore has a collection of around 650 antique clocks some of which are over 200 years old.

"Some clocks were brought by my grandfather from abroad and later my father also started collecting them. I collected them as well. Some are over 200 years old. All clocks are in working condition," antique clock collector Anil Bhalla told news agency ANI. 

He has a dedicated room in his house for their display and storage.

These clocks range in different sizes and models including the ones with a pendulum running on balance, some run with a steel ball.

Many of these timepieces are also hand-made and some have been imported, too.

The maintenance of these wall pieces is also highly demanding and sometimes the mechanics and artisans are called from Mumbai and Chennai to keep them ticking.

He also suggested that the collection can be turned into a museum by the next generation.

"I will tell my generation after me that if they can't handle it, then keep it locked in a safe or make it their museum," he added.

Many people visit Bhalla to buy this collection but he remains attached to his unique collection of watches. In the year 2013, his name was also recorded in the Limca Book of Records for this amazing collection.

He also has a collection of antique fans, bikes and lamps. "Apart from watches, I have old fans which used to have a wooden lamp and three blades, I also have a bicycle dating back to the second World War and an old BMW bike which is still in working condition," he concluded.
