Randy W Posted January 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 from Goldthread - China's Swiss watch maker Shenzhen watchmaker: How a self-taught man learned to make $80,000 watches Xin Fang JAN 25, 2021 Lin Yonghua learned how to make watches by taking them apart. Now, he is one of China’s few Swiss-accredited watchmakers. Quote Independent watchmakers stand in contrast to the big companies that make up a majority of the market. They more or less make the watches themselves, injecting their own personalities into designs. Most spend months working on just one piece, a culmination of skill, passion, and patience. Lin Yonghua is one of only three watchmakers from China certified by the AHCI, a Swiss organization that represents independent watchmakers. Membership is exclusive and requires one to make a watch completely without assistance. All the more impressive, then, that Lin is mostly self-taught. He grew up in China at a time when most people could not afford luxury watches, let alone make one. Link to comment
