It seems that the art of the competent watchmen may be dying. The true artisians of the craft are getting harder and harder to find. So, how does one become one? Can an online school help?

Timezone has an on-line program, I believe.

I think I am well on my way then, as I have a nice grinder in the garage. I may soon eclipse all "competent" watchmen in this town with my superior god given talents. They all will cringe at the site of my loupe as I use it to meticulously saw off the back of a MOP President. JJ, send your watches to me!!
