Watchmaking The course

About

Tristan Ledard, watchmaker.

Originally from Picardy, I have always been drawn to the meticulous handwork that watchmaking demands.

I trained for the Brevet des Métiers d'Art at the Paris School of Watchmaking and worked alongside master watchmakers, including on the restoration of astronomical clocks. In 2016 I won the AHCI Young Talent competition at Baselworld, receiving first prize from François-Paul Journe. I am also the inventor of a patented bracelet clasp.

Now based in the Netherlands, I teach watchmaking online and in tailor-made courses, repair watches for private customers and develop WIM for watch brands.
