Hello!
Nice to meet you all. I'm learning to make watches and I'm excited to get to know you all and learn more!
A few years ago I had a nasty injury at work and hurt my spine rather badly. Because of this Im effectively retired at 33, which means I have an incredible amount of free time available to me.
Ive always been utterly fascinated with mechanical watches, and have dreamed about being able to make my own. Now because of some unfortunate events I have the opportunity to do just that!
I've ordered myself a copy of George daniels book, and if it takes me ten years, I don't mind, I WILL make that watch!
I'm very much looking forward to making friends and learning as much as I can along the way. Thanks for taking the time to read my giant wall of text!
Cheers!
