Why Professional Development Through Watchmaking?

Swiss watchmaking is not just the subject being taught—it is the lens through which professionals deepen their understanding of craftsmanship, precision, heritage and excellence.

Drawing on more than 30 years in the Swiss watch industry, Michael Dubs combines experience in manufacturing, restoration, after-sales service, high complications and education with a passion for making Swiss watchmaking accessible. As both a Swiss Federal Master Watchmaker and FHH Academy Accredited Trainer, he helps professionals deepen their understanding of craftsmanship, precision and heritage while developing the confidence and credibility to engage more meaningfully with clients, colleagues and collectors.
