The Bundy Manufacturing Company was a 19th-century American manufacturer of timekeeping devices that went through a series of mergers, eventually becoming part of International Business Machines and Simplex Time Recorder Company. It was the first time-recording company in the world to produce time clocks, colloquially known as 'Bundys'. The company was founded by the Bundy Brothers.

Willard Legrand Bundy was born on 8 December 1845[1] in Otsego, New York, and died on 19 January 1907.[2] His family later moved to Auburn, New York, where he worked as a jeweler and invented a time clock in 1888.[1] He later obtained patents of many mechanical devices.[3]

Harlow E. Bundy was born in 1856 in Auburn, New York. He was a graduate of Hamilton College. He died in 1916 in Pasadena, California, after retiring from business in 1915.
