SUMMARY:Explore Watchmaking I
DESCRIPTION:Explore Watchmaking – Level I\nBasic Assembly\nIn our Level 1 Watch Exploration remote workshop we help you disassemble and reassemble the gear train of a hand-wound mechanical watch without having to leave the comfort of your own home. You will learn the names of the basic components\, their function\, and how all of the components interact. \nThe remote workshop is taught by one of AWCI’s certified watchmakers using the GoToMeeting platform. We provide most of the tools and materials and guide you through the process of establishing a temporary workshop in your home. Once you receive the classroom kit\, you will join a live digital classroom with no more than 5 other participants and will be able to ask questions.  \nWe want everyone to succeed in disassembling and reassembling the watch movement\, but we can’t reach through the computer screen to help you out. We have adjusted our in-person curriculum to give the best experience and the highest likelihood of success and we guarantee you will leave with a better understanding of mechanical timepieces. \n \nRegistration can be found at the website below.  Choose if you want to purchase tools\, borrow tools or if you have your own tools.  Also there is an option for either a ST3600 Chinese movement or to upgrade to a Swiss 6497.\n \nhttps://old.awci.com/educationcareers/distance-learning/\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTechnology Requirements \nIn order to participate in a distance learning class you will need a tablet or computer with internet access\, a webcam\, and a microphone located near your workspace. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTestimonials\n\n\n\n\nAll in all\, well worth my time. The 4 hours flew by!  I look forward to more online courses and\, if I can\, to come to your facilities in person for more workshops.  Ideally\, I want to continue my education to a point where I can be a reasonable good watchmaker at least as a hobby.  We’re off to a good start! \nJames M. – New York \n\n\nThe remote learning Explore Watchmaking was an incredible experience. The class size was limited to five students so the instructors were able to follow each student very closely. The class was very well thought out and was tailored for students with zero experience\, yet moved at an acceptable pace for students with some experience like myself. The class covers the disassembly and assembly process in great detail\, focusing on how the parts interact with each other. There is no substitute to having someone experienced walk through the assembly process and answer questions along the way. \nRicci H. – Baton Rouge\, Louisiana \n\n\nThis class is perfect for the person that doesn’t have the time or the ability to travel for a course\, we all have jobs and family’s\, to experience what its like to be a watchmaker. Its an amazing class where you can interact with real watchmakers that guide you and through what it takes to service a watch movement in real time. The best part is that you can do it all without leaving home\, and in a time frame that anyone can fit into their life. If you ever wanted to know what it’s like to be a watchmaker\, take this course! You wont be disappointed. \nMike L. – Bedford\, New Hampshire \n\n\nAll in all\, well worth my time.
