Jessop's Clock

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jessop's Clock is located in San Diego, California, USA. It was built in 1907 by one of the city's noted jewelers, George Carter Jessop, and stood in the city's downtown centre for most of the 20th century.

It is said that on the day of his death, Jessop's clock stopped working for reasons that are as yet unknown. This tale has given the clock status as a San Diego landmark.

Jessop's Clock has since been moved into Horton Plaza, a large outdoor shopping centre in downtown San Diego.
