HOROLOGY

horology: the art of timepiece-making and repair; the study of time itself

What a fascinating field of study... that I'd never heard of until a friend introduced me to the word.

So horologists are people who make or repair timepieces, but also those who study timepieces and how they work, or even study the very physics of time.

Nerd that I am, the immediate question that comes to mind is... Would they also include among their numbers inventors of time machines? Doc Brown, for instance?
