The family behind it

Backed by Hoover's Jewelry.

It began in 1969, when Floyd and Jo Hoover bought a small jewelry store in Pittsburg, Texas. Their son David took the bench in 1982, and the store became Hoover's Jewelry, where he still works that bench today in Mount Pleasant.

I'm Matt, David and Wyn's son-in-law, and every watch I sell carries that 55-year reputation for honesty and craftsmanship, and David's rule:"Know what you're buying, and who you're buying it from."
