Before you all fall off your seats, no, this is not a collaboration on a new watch.
Instead, it's a joint venture by the three individuals in the title to establish a training program for established watchmakers to learn the "old skills" which are rapidly disappearing as a result of increased automation, CNC machines etc.
For now I will just post some quick snaps. A separate room has been set up at the Greubel Forsey booth at SIHH 2012 and in it, I found the maestro himself with his new disciple (whose name I did not record, but he is an established watchmaker and teacher at a watchmaking school).
As I was snapping, Steven Forsey turned up to inspect things.
Will report more about this when I have a little more info.
Much more to come...stay tuned....same Tart-time, same Tart-channel.
