I'm going to look out for you Joe when you become your own brand. Just make sure to give me a nice discount on one of your pieces. :wink: Congrats on the progress and kudos to an awesome experience to meeting Philippe.

I'm very jealous.

Good luck with the training.

What are you aspirations once you finish your training?

Hello once I have finished I am doing after sales servicing for a shop in the uk Sheffield. Hopefully when I have finished this course I want to get breitling,Rolex, Patek Phillipe training and other brands if possible hopefully it should be because I am 16 so I have a lot of time. Thank you. :)

Great photos, keep up the good work. Your parents must be very proud to have a son that has real goals and doesn't just play video games!
