Company History
The Wm S. McCaw was established in 1913 at 320 Superior Street in Toledo, Ohio by William and Margaret McCaw. In 1929 Gale A. Wilson went to work for them sweeping the floors. In November of 1937, Gale in conjunction with Clarence and Othella Schutt, purchased the company from the McCaw family. In 1973 Gale passed on his leadership upon his retirement to his son Gerald Wilson. Gerald continued the legacy of working with various other partners to grow and expand the company. The McCaw Company moved to its current location at 1722 Madison Ave in 1976 where it has seen numerous expansions and upgrades throughout the years. The company has very experienced personnel to service the needs of the watchmaker and jeweler with most employees having 15-30+ years experience at McCaw Company. In January of 2015 David Wilson became president following the retirement of his father Gerald Wilson and becoming the 3rd generation of Wilson leadership in the company.
