For sure, I saw the difference over the years when I was trying to find decent independent watchmakers in the Toronto area. It was a lot easier years ago when I got my Explorer II serviced.

I'll certainly do my part to try keep this art form alive.

Cool story.

I'm sure the whole in-house movements trend will have an effect on, perhaps not him so much, but watchmaker repair shops in the future.
