Mechanical engineer working in medical devices that fell in love with mechanical watches. It started with an Elgin from my great grandfather inscribed Christmas 1912 that I restored and grew from there. Kids got me a watch movement kit for my birthday and now I’m on a watch making learning journey. Not a lot of social media presence.
