The Discovery Workshops LEARN THE STORY OF SWISS FINE WATCHMAKING
The Discovery Workshops
A DEEP IMMERSION IN SWISS FINE WATCHMAKING
Discovery Workshops are an opportunity to explore the world of Swiss fine watchmaking in a new way, blending academic education and hands-on experience.
Hosted by an instructor and a technical expert, each of the themed Workshops will explore one of Jaeger-LeCoultre’s signature areas of expertise and horological complications, or will reveal the inside story of a particular watch collection:
- Learn about the past, present and future of watchmaking at Jaeger-LeCoultre and go hands-on, using larger-scale models to try to replicate the work of the Maison’s watchmakers;
- Dive deep into the heart of watch movements to understand how they work; discover the technical and creative skills required for their fabrication; and explore the design principles and artistic crafts employed in Haute Horlogerie.
Duration: 3 hours
Maximum participants: 8 people
Discovery Workshops may, if wished, be paired with a Manufacture Visit based on the same theme, to enable participants to observe how watchmakers apply the principles and skills in their day-to-day work.
