Watchmaker’s craftsmanship
Because of the decision to put the tried and tested Revue Thommen manufacturing movements back into production, it became clear how important it is to encourage once more the profession of watchmaker. Especially in the Basle area there are practically no qualified watchmakers left. Most businesses in the Basle area restrict themselves to having watches made by outside firms.
But Grovana company was able to acquire a qualified and competent watch specialist. In August 2003 a first watchmaker apprentice was employed. What is involved in the training of a watchmaker?
With the renewal of production of manufacturer’s movements and also the return to the traditional mechanical watch the training of a watchmaker was clear from the start. Grovana is today one of the few watch brands which in addition to the mechanical works assemble all watches themselves.
A watchmaker apprentice thus enjoys a richness of variety and training extending into detail.
He is trained not only in the mechanical sector but also in the field of electronic wristwatches. Thanks to a thorough craftsman training and detailed theoretical knowledge he also possesses the techniques of repair and servicing.
After his training, he has the possibility of practising his professional activity in the specialist business, in the industry, or in one of the many service departments abroad.
