We're delighted to present our first Glashütte Experience. This will be a 2-day visit to the South-East German town of Glashütte to visit at least three watch Manufactures, enjoy dinner with Kudoke at one of Glashütte's many fine restaurants, and meet other Members of The Watch Collectors' Club. You'll get to see how watches are made, learn what qualifies for the Glashütte standard, and explore the fine hand-finishing the town's watchmakers are known for.

This is your chance to see how watchmakers really work and how brands create the stories behind their iconic timepieces.

Here is what our previous attendees had to say

"This trip exceeded all my expectations.. It was an absolute highlight"

Geneva Watch Days Experience Attendee

"I saw a lot of watch manufacturers that I would have never known existed... I gained an ability to see the artistry as well as the complexity of what they were doing"

Geneva Watch Days Experience Attendee

"I have such a richer appreciation because of that time... I can read blog articles till the cows come home, but to actually sit and talk to David or to see the machinery and speak to the people whose jobs are doing these incredible things. It's a whole other game."

Geneva Watch Days Experience Attendee

Thanks for such a fantastic three days. I couldn't have done it myself and it was great to be introduced to so many brands.

Dubai Watch Week Experience Attendee

I loved going to MB&F House, it was so great to see how they do things. The Hermes presentation was amazing too.
