Today’s world is ruled by screens, social media and short videos, dramatically reducing our attention to details and ability to focus! Amplitude’s masterclass is the total opposite. The workshop will bring your accuracy and focus to new levels, in a relaxed and friendly environment. I’m a complete beginner in watchmaking and Renaud-Louis patiently shared his knowledge and his passion with me. A great opportunity to literally “take time” for yourself! Highly recommended!

I/We had a fabulous experience learning all about watchmaking and a brief history on the measurement of time. Renaud was the perfect host and I will be back again to learn more. Myself and my friends will be bringing our watches and clocks here to be serviced too! Thanks again!

Really entertaining session with Renaud. Covered the fascinating history and major innovations of timepieces which was fun to "marry" with my own knowledge of other history and events at those time. Also did a hands-on mechanical disassembly / reassembly of inner working pieces. I was wearing a ball watch in attendance and was "scolded" for not keeping my complications correctly set 🙂 .... that won't happen again. I was a little dubious of this gift voucher from my wife, but am so happy I attended and I appreciate my own modest watch collection so much more now.

Thanks again to Amplitude for sparking a new found interest in watch making. The class and the instructor was excellent, I highly recommend the experience whether your are new to this or experimented as you will have a great time discussing, learning and listening to very experienced people. The class is really interactive, and most important they take their time to ensure that yours is great!
