    To learn more process on Chronographs you'll add 3 more weeks / 130 hours to that training:

    Then to learn more on using a Lathe and Turning add another 10 weeks / 420 hours:

    If this is facebook, I will "like" this post

    but to mention / highlight one more important thing : watch assemblers are NOT watch makers.
    simply pop in pop out exercise and sell a watch for few thousands dollars is really not work of art.

      Agree, it takes skill and time..... 10 years plus I'd say as minimum.
