Easter

 Hello again,


Easter break starts tomorrow!  The senior students are preparing for their final exams and finishing up their watches.

Craig completed his first prototype dial, made with steel applied indices and nickel coated brass plate.

Joan is finishing up his balance bridge holder.

The students in their micro mechanics course have started hand turning and working in winding stems.

We had a special visit this week by Jason Champion, an old acquaintance of Henrik. Mr Champion is now the head teacher at AWCI, he came to observe how watchmaking is taught over here and to discuss watchmaking in America. Always great seeing passionate watchmakers from other sides of the globe.

Henrik, Jason and Michael

Hopefully the weather pulls through for the Easter break, happy Easter and until next time.
