Achille Benoit Chronometer - Vianney Halter Watchmaking Workshop Part Four

On the 3rd October 2019 I had the pleasure of going down the rabbit hole to Vianney Halter's watchmaking world for a day. It was truly an amazing experience that I will never forget. I had a camera with me, so I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.
I'm breaking down the visit to Vianney's Watchmaking Workshop into parts which are going to be released weekly.
This is part four, where Vianney talks about some of the amazing horological machines he has made, or has in his shop under repair. Like the Achille Benoit Chronometer. Also, we see how he is working on some prototype for his next watch. We hear some of Vianney Halter’s amazing philosophies on life and watchmaking. It is truly inspiration to hear and see the watchmaking workshop where Vianney Halter watches we all love are made, the from the Antiqua, Classic, Classic Janvier and the Deep Space Tourbillon.
Vianney in my opinion is the greatest independent watchmaker in the world. With his creations truly unique, like the Antiqua, Classic Janvier, Trio and the most current Deep Space Tourbillon. I discovered watchmaking through him and fell in love with this craft, which set me down my own watchmaking journey.
A huge thank you to Vianney Halter, who was so generous and accepted my request to visit without hesitation.
