The Complete Horological Repair Program


The Complete Horological Repair Program combines the Clock Repair Program and the Watch Repair Program into one program with 21 courses (11 watch repair and 10 clock repair) that takes 69 weeks to complete (1,862 clock hours). Each clock hour is 50 minutes long. The program is designed with the novice in mind and progresses to more advanced stages and technologies in watch and clock repair. Graduates of the complete program are fully equipped with knowledge and skills in the art and science of watch and clockmaking and repair and can expect to attain at least an entry level position in the horological industry. They will be able to repair and rebuild, overhaul and refurbish vintage timepieces as well as the newer, more modern ones. Some may even choose to apprentice under a Master Horologist.
