High powered microscope picture of the Hour Striker. This is used to check for dust and other particles. The cool thing is that the microscope has an internal camera and a CF card jack so we can easily shoot really up close pictures. |

This week, we have a professional photographer who will be attached to the school for 2 weeks so we're going to have lots of really cool stuff to post.
For starters, we have a HD video clip of Henrik fine tuning a Ulysse Nardin Hour Striker. Being part of the Ulysse Nardin's Watch Academy Foundation, Henrik often gets complications like the Hour Striker and other complications to fine tune or repair or assess. This means that students also get to observe these beautiful pieces first hand and how meticulous the process of repair or servicing, i.e UN has a very strict dust policy which means that when the watch is returned to the owner, it is absolutely dust free and this means that Henrik has to sometime spend long periods of time after school hours to make sure that there are no dust in the movement.
