I started in the polishing department where I spent six months learning the trade of refinishing watch cases and bracelets. I then spent six months servicing quartz watches before attending the British School of Watchmaking where I spent two years earning a WOSTEP diploma.Upon returning to Breitling in Tunbridge Wells in 2009 I spent the next two years gaining experience in the workshop and qualifying to Breitling Level 3 before being given the responsibility of manager in 2011.
