Are you interested in it as a hobby or as a profession? Are you interested in taking a course now and then, or a two year full time committment?

Thanks for your responce.I'm very interested in just learning how to clean one properly and maybe do a little repair on some junkers as the other guy suggested.My interest is purley for the "hobby".I realize it takes years and years of working on timepieces to be able to say that you are a "watchmaker".I've torn an old watch apart and I am going to try to put it back together.Who knows,maybe if I get it back together it might even run!Thanks
