On his chosen profession
“As a teenager, I didn't know what I wanted to do for a living. My father had been a watch collector for a long time and on his advice, I did an internship at the watchmaking school in the Black Forest. The master watchmaker I met there was super inspiring with his passion for our profession and shortly afterwards I started my apprenticeship.
In my everyday life, I get to work with a great team on the best watches in the industry. What's particularly exciting is that we sometimes recognize our parts in a shop window or on social media years after delivery, in watches that we wouldn't have expected to see them in.
Watchmaking is super versatile, there are many areas in which you can contribute your skills. You can have a lot of fun at the watchmaker's bench or it can be a perfect base for tasks in the whole industry. Be passionate and ambitious!”
