Even as a young student at the University of Applied Sciences in Furtwangen (Germany), where I successfully completed my studies in precision engineering, I was fascinated by this ingenious CURTA calculating machine.
After working for over 15 years as a development engineer at renowned watch companies (including Glashütte Original, A. Lange & Söhne, Vulcain, and Martin Braun), I established my own watch workshop in 2015.
