Summer offer from Thomas Prescher Haute Horlogerie  0 Comments

Published Wednesday, July 07, 2010 by Harry SK Tan |

 


I received this through my email and thought it was a wonderful idea worth sharing for those who are serious about horology. Thomas is offering those who are traveling around Switzerland to visit his atelier and enjoy a tour at Twann, Switzerland - this summer only.  The tour will be an opportunity for visitors to discover for themselves how a timepiece is developed, produced, assembled and regulated - from raw pieces of metal to a finished piece of art. Visitors also get to see 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
