For several years, he focused on repairing and servicing pocket watches for railroad conductors as they passed through town on the railroad.

Ken K Thompson jewelry opened in 1935 in the small town of Cass Lake, MN and was primarily focused on watch repairs and sales for booming railroads of the area. Unlike most young men during the Great Depression who took up professions involving physical labor, Ken took a different approach and became proficient in watch repair. It was widely known there was no watch or clock Ken couldn't repair and no watch part he couldn't make at his watch bench.
