Product information "Book Basic Skills of the Watchmaker - second, updated edition (only available in German)"
Exclusive: The "Basic Skills of the Watchmaker - Metalworking Basics of the Watchmaking Profession" is one of the few current new publications for the watchmaking industry.
Already in the second, revised edition, August 2021. Only available in German!
Basically, specialist books have been reissued as reprints from past decades for years. This is certainly useful and helpful, but none of these books can take current developments into account. There have been no real new releases for years.
Now the renowned watchmaker Oliver Hambel (Uhrenpark Hessen) has used the time to write a new book for the industry, which we can offer you exclusively for the trade.
"Watchmakers should be able to make almost all parts of a watch from scratch. The necessary metalworking basics should be conveyed in my book," says the author. It is important to pack the work and skills in a contemporary, easily understandable format.
On more than 150 pages, Oliver Hambel conveys practical knowledge apart from all too theoretical treatises. The individual chapters are illustrated with plenty of pictures and optimally staged - this is how the theory turns into living instructions for the watchmaker and for everyone who wants to become one or is interested in watchmaking.
It is Hambel's way of conveying the basics and the work very closely to practice, which is what makes this book so exciting, instructive and understandable.
