In the 1960’s Alex Fossner and his son Peter left Czechoslovakia, when the Russians invaded that country, to follow the American Dream. He opened Fossner Timepieces on the upper eastside of New York in 1969. He soon had a large following due to his fine quality workmanship and respected work ethic. Within a few years his store was filled with many great timepieces and other horological works of art. Alex worked in his store until Peter was ready to take over the business. Peter met Jeff Morris at a Sotheby's watch auction in January, 1980, and they have been collaborating ever since selling fine watches. They incorporated in 1986 as J & P Timepieces.
