    I heard this piece on the way into the office this morning and found it quite promising. I have vaguely been wondering how dying of an art watchmaking is. Surely there are talented folks in the E.U., but where will matchmakers in the U.S. come from?

    Sounds like they are even teaching them to work on vintage pieces :thumbsup:
