Hey all,

Like all of you, I too have just been bitten by the watchmaker's bug. I've always loved watches and have been planning to start my own business as a watch dealer, and in my quest to become an expert of all aspects of a watch, not just the market values and remembering reference numbers and such,  I decided it was time to really learn and understand the mechanics of how a watch works. This quest was originally meant to just be me reading and watching videos online so that I can gain just enough knowledge to be able to speak to customers, and just know more than the next dealer.

 

HOWEVER, I am smitten with curiosity and awe of this whole other world that is watchmaking, I have put everything else aside for the moment and decided to buy tools and a Unitas 6497 and just dive in head first. I just watched the Watchmaker's Apprentice, featuring the legendary George Daniels and Roger Smith, and now I can't stop thinking about watchmaking!  

 

Looking forward to this journey and it's exciting that I get to share it with you all to help me along the way.
