Asad Khan, CW21


         As a child I was so curious about how things worked that I often enjoyed taking mechanical things apart and putting them back together. When I was six years old my father had bought my mother a Seiko automatic. I was fascinated with the sound it made and the way the second hand moved. Well you guessed it right I took the watch apart. My father was not to happy but not to worry there is a happy ending to this story.
        I attended school in the states receiving many awards of achievement, a degree in Automotive Technology and a Bachelors in Business Administration. Being mechanical minded and customer oriented I worked at a jewelry store where some watch repair came in and I was very successful with the minor repairs I did. I started to look more into watch repair and achieved much self-taught knowledge of quartz and mechanical movements. Some years later I opened a small business, Watch Repair Shop.
        I was invited to a local chapter of NCWA (North Carolina Watch Association) and became a member. I soon after learned about the classes at     AWCI
​ ( American Watchmakers and Clock-Makers Institute ). An Association dedicated to the learning of Horology. I have attended watch making classes at this institute in :
  1. Lathe I and II
  2. Modern Automatics Watches
  3. Modern Mechanical Chronograph Servicing and Adjusting
  4. Basic Quartz & Quartz Chronograph
  5. Balance Staffing & Timing
  6. Servicing & adjusting Lever Escapement
  7. Servicing & Repair on ETA Calibers with Alessandro Betti
  8. Service and in depth study of Rolex movements
  9. Case & Bracelet Refinishing
  10. Omega Watchmaker Evaluation 1120 Certification  (01/10/2018)
          June 2009 Went to the Swatch Group Training Center and studied under Dan Fenwick ( Gentleman that has contributed his life and time to the watch industry) in depth study of Omega Co-Axial Calibre 2500a, 2500b, 2500c. Focus on Co-Axial Escapement, mandatory tools, lubrications, epilame, list of checks during assembly, timing, replacement of helium escape valve, water proofing and vaccum testing, care and polishing of the watch band and case.
November 2009 I took the Certification for the CW21 ( Twenty-First Century Certified Watchmaker ). This certification is being required to keep a parts account with Rolex , Swatch Groups (brands)  and other high grade companies. All watchmakers can get a watch running but not all can practice great quality of workmanship. This Certification proves the high standards of workmanship you will receive from me.
         The happy ending to my mother's watch is my parents kept the watch for some odd reason and gave it to me some years back and asked me to repair it. I was successful and my mother often wears it and reminds me of what I did to her watch. I enjoy my work and dedicate myself to offering the best quality service.
