Hello again,
Another eventful week at K&H. Early in the week our first visitor was the watchmaker and entrepreneur Roman Winiger from Open Movements. He gave our students a detailed explanation of his goals and journey so far. Open Movements is a non profit organisation that aims to construct watch movements and parts for the public domain using open source principles. It is a place where watchmakers can freely share ideas and help one another.

Later in the week, the alumni Charles came to the workshop. Charles is first generation K&H student, a real OG.

Finally, the new batch of students have started a new chapter. They have all started using the 8mm lathe and learning to hand turn. Will soon be pumping out winding stems pivot gauges.

That’s it for now, until next time!
