Even the apparently hopeless watcthes were awakened to the new life. Services offered by the master, covered the full spectrum: from the simple repair manual winding watches to complex chronographs. Not surprisingly, since childhood, Klaus Jakob was interested in horology, and he followed in the footsteps of his father. His passion was, above all, watch that work on a bygone era, gauges are more indulged into oblivion during rapid quartz revolution.
