Summer offer from Thomas Prescher Haute Horlogerie:
Visit the atelier and experience Independent Watchmaking
Thomas Prescher is offering tours of atelier in Twann, Switzerland on this summer.
Discover for yourself how a timepiece is developed, produced, assembled and regulated - from raw pieces of metal to a finished piece of art. You will also learn what the various machines do and the techniques watchmakers use to master their craft.
Under experienced guidance, you will have a chance to sit at a watchmaker's bench, loupe on the eye, screwdriver and tweezers in hand and try manipulating real watch components for yourself. Practice your fine finishing technique on a tiny steel part and, if you are feeling brave, try your hand a finishing a real tourbillon bridge.
The offer runs until August 31st 2010.
If you are interested, please contact at office@prescher.ch or phone +41 (0)32 315 28 66 for more details.
Best regards,
Thomas Prescher
Master Watchmaker and AHCI member
