Training Watchmakers in the Jura

Some watch companies have strived for perfection within their own specific production houses and from experience have trained their own watchmakers who are capable of fabulous achievements. Of course, with permission, and high class facilities, anything is possible in virtual reality.

Maurice Lacroix in Saignelegier, have a wonderful experience in store for you as regards to teaching watchmaking skills to visiting watchmakers. This is reserved for their associates in the numerous countries where they sell ML products.

However, since I have already been there twice, I can write about their superb facility and training sessions, not to mention their world famous 'Franches montagne' cuisine!
