What a great read this was, thank you for sharing and bringing us along. Sounds like it was an incredible experience.

You’re quite the writer as well!

I’m really hoping to do the JLC class someday.

First welcome to the forum.

There’s a downside to what you’ve posted here … you’ll never top it

THANK YOU so much for making the time for this write up, the pictures, and taking us along on your birthday journey. What an unforgettable experience.

I’ll echo what ours have said … truly one of the best posts on TRF.

An AP Horology and finishing book. 90 chf
Chocolates (3 types) 12chf each
ASSOULINE book. I want to say it was 220CHF or maybe 250 CHF
An AP stories book which was complimentary.

Great write-up, thanks for sharing.

I look forward to the master class one day, even though my beer-league hockey teammates think my hands are made of concrete lol

Sorry I missed answering this. I reached out to make sure the class would be in the language preference during the visit. Subsequently, they were kind enough to reserve a spot and I booked online to complete the registration process.

JTY Canada, how can we be bored!? Thank you for the post and such detailed review. Today, I was in AP House in Amsterdam and got info from the sales team that AP intends to make similar watchmaking experience in our city. I was curious if it happens in Le Brassus and found your post. My current wish is to book it right away!
