I went through the three Time Zone Watch Courses before coming here. The first two were written by Walt Odets and were excellant. The third was written by one of the heirs to the Otto Frei Company and I felt it was not as good as the first two; but still worth the time and money to go through it. The prevaling wisdom with watch repair was always to start with the larger pocket watches and once mastered, work down to the smaller sizes. The Time Zone Courses start with an automatic wrist watch and step you through the mechanisms. It doesn’t really cover repairing watches but does a great job explaining watches and how they work. While not absolutely necessary for a beginner, I felt it was a good first exposure to watches and helped me to understand Bob’s course which in my view is more advanced.
