MY NAME IS ANTHONY

I'm a Swiss trained Horologist who lived in Europe and moved to the USA. I’ve worked with and am certified by many brands like Rolex, Swatch (Omega, etc), and other industry giants you’ve all heard about.

I’ve been in the watchmaking industry since I was a kid and have gone through the ranks in different brands and industry giants. My entire family lineage lived and breathed watchmaking.

WHY I REMAIN ANNONYMOUS

You may also be wondering why you never see my last name or a clear photo. This is really to keep my identity safe in order to continue providing relevant up to date watchmaking info from the industry itself. The brands in the industry will blacklist you if they know you’re sharing information online to the public. For free.

There isn’t much reliable information on Watchmaking outside of what you see on watch forums and magazines for actual watchmaking. One of the reasons why I started this website, Instagram, and persona is so that I can share the information to you.

KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID

My goal is to bring more attention to the field of watchmaking through concepts and philosophies that I’ve learned. Watchmaking literature is often times dry and boring as hell too. I try my best to make Watchmaking fun to learn and as simple as possible. I'm of the firm belief that less is more.

"Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler."

- ALBERT EINSTEIN

READ THIS TO GET TO KNOW ME BETTER:

I'M NOT GOING TO ROMANTICIZE WATCHMAKING

I tell you all of this so that you can understand where I'm coming from when you read my work. I'm not going to romanticize watchmaking. I'm going to tell you as it is.

I love and respect the shit out of it now but I'm not going to bore you with some romantic flowery language. 

I say that because I hated watchmaking at one point in my life. I’ve quit this field many times but got back into it later on. I respect the hell out of it now. It’s fair to say that I’m very balanced in my views.

So without further ado, sit tight and enjoy the show...

I also have a No BS Watchmaking Crash Course (NBWMCC) on the ETA 2824 and 2892 that you can check out here. A lot of my students have used these courses to pass their watchmaking certification programs and became certified watchmakers (see here for proof).
