The watchmaker gives life to the movement. He assembles hundreds of components to create the “engine” of the watch. He often has to adjust the tiny gear wheels and bridges in order to ensure a perfect fit. Patience and thoroughness are indispensable qualities in such work.Each machined component is finished and decorated by hand. The parts are then assembled. These meticulous gestures have remained identical for hundreds of years. The watchmaker carefully arranges all the elements in front of him on the workbench. He then gradually pieces the moving parts together on the mainplate forming the movement base, patiently adjusting the regulating organ and ensuring that the movement runs smoothly and accurately.
