Autor

Mark Wiles, who has had a passion for repairing watches and clocks since the age of twelve, runs the workshop at Antique & Modern in East Barnet (an Omega credited service centre). After passing his Final British Horological Institute (BHI) examination in technical horology, he was granted a three-year apprenticeship by the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers (WCC). He thus maintained a proud family tradition dating back to the eighteenth century for two of his ancestors, Steven and Edwin Wiles, were both distinguished clockmakers based in central London. In 2010 Mark became both a Freeman of the WCC and the BHI's youngest accredited Fellow.
