Milestones and a master at the bench

65 milestones accompany the building of the first movement. A master watchmaker gives praise in a calm voice, and every stage ends with a look back.

Runs in the development version. Shatterwork is not yet public.

The chronograph, one of the stages on the way to the finished movement. Render from the teaching model.

A movement with almost 200 assembly units is not built in one evening. To keep the way ahead visible, there are now milestones.

65 milestones

While you build the first movement, the ETA 7750, 65 milestones are waiting: small and large moments on the way from the first part to the finished movement.

A master who does not rush you

A master watchmaker keeps you company and praises good work, in a calm voice and without fanfare. So that his praise never turns into a stock phrase, he knows 54 variations in each language.

Next goal and a look back

One line always shows your next goal. And after each stage you look back at what you have achieved before you carry on.
