I've always liked doing things with my hands, when I was at school, I used to love arts and crafts, and that led me to look into watchmaking as a profession. I really liked it and I knew it was the profession I wanted to pursue.

An artisan is someone who works with their hands and with great passion.

I'm a watchmaker in the Fine Watchmaking workshop for Chopard.

(Sandro works on the inner workings of a watch wearing an eye loupe.)

At Chopard, we are still lucky enough to be able to do very traditional watchmaking.

Because these values are disappearing, it's important for us as watchmakers to do as much as we can in each watch, to assemble it from A to Z.

(Sandro meticulously assembles the tiny parts of a tourbillon carriage and gently puts it in place in the timepiece.)

It is a guarantee of excellence to have these hallmarks, whether it's the Geneva Seal or the COSC criteria. And that's what really counts in my eyes anyway. My personality reflects these values, because another aspect of being an artisan is having this kind of expertise, too.

(On-screen text: Setting the tourbillon in motion)

The tourbillon is a symbol of watchmaking excellence. It was invented for its precision. In the workshop where I am, it's low-scale production with very great value, very high value.

And that's essential for me. We can continue to invest in the field of Fine Watchmaking.

So my vision of a timepiece is that it's something that will truly span generations and arouse emotions, which is why it's important to do it well. I think I'm very fortunate.

(Sandro holds up a finished watch and inspects it, turning it so the light glances off the different parts and engravings.)
