Hi folks

Looking for thoughts / feedback on this course. Anyone here attended? Worthwhile?

Don’t know but it looks cool.

 

Looks like a very cool set up. My question is will a one day class translate into a broader understanding of watch mechanics?. Would a one day build of a VW air cooled engine coach you for a V8 or a straight 6 ?.
I do like the examples of the watches you will build. Is $1245 a little pricey?.

 

@Mad Dog you did this right?

 

Correct...our oldest kid unit and I attended the course together in early 2018 at the AWCI headquarters in Harrison, Ohio.

To the OP, @BatDad , a very worthwhile course in my humble opinion...I learned a boat load of stuff.

Also, it looks like two of my watches made the AWCI eventbrite.com flyer...

 

Yes, I think so. It won't make you a watchmaker, but it will help you understand what is involved certainly.

 

Thanks for the recommendation @Mad Dog. Gained wife approval and have registered!

Looking forward to it!
