Thanks for posting this, planning on flying home to attend both events. Hard to believe it's been almost 3 years that I attended a similar event back in March 2020 that was a huge influence in my interest in becoming a watchmaker.

I went to the one in 2020 as well. Not sure I'll make it to this one but I'll try watch online

Watched the first part just now and really enjoyed it. Have the next one booked in my Outlook so will be sure to watch it tomorrow evening.

The second of John's IEI talks is now also up on youtube. Well worth watching - it deals with watch movements - basic time, chronograph, tourbillon and minute repeaters.
