Established in Paris, Objectif Horlogerie’s ‘First Time’ watchmaking classes allow enthusiasts to experience the indescribable emotion of mastering time. Under the tuition of co-founders, Jean Yves Goldman and Samir Khemici, workshop attendees are observing and participating in the watchmaker’s rituals gaining an insight into the precision and complexity of watchmaking.
These informative workshops are proving to be extremely popular; classes have good attendance, and all future classes are now fully booked! So far 40 watch connoisseurs have enjoyed taking part in the classes and by the end of the exhibition, a hundred participants will have received their accredited diploma to mark this significant moment of time.
Jean Yves Goldman, Co-founder of Objectif Horlogerie, said, “I am extremely happy to introduce visitors of DJWE to the fascinating world of watchmaking. Participants are very eager to learn and left happy at their accomplishments. It is a great pleasure to pass on my enthusiasm to others at an esteemed event such as this.
He added, “the organisation of the event itself, the large space that we have been given within the venue, allow us to ensure that we deliver classes that everyone can enjoy. We are looking forward to welcoming more keen participants in the coming days.”
Objectif Horlogerie introductory workshops reveal the secret life of a timepiece before it reaches the windows of the luxury stores … the parts that ensure a smooth mechanical movement and the time-honoured handcrafting that is inherent to each piece. They have hosted five to six complimentary watchmaking sessions per day, limited to four participants.
Reinforcing the country’s position as a premium business events destination, the annual luxury exhibition welcomes over 500 brands through 40 exhibitors from 10 countries, returning to showcase their striking gemstone and accessories at Doha Exhibition and Conference Center in the heart of Doha’s business district.
Entry to DJWE 2017 is free (reserved to visitors above 12) and registration can be completed at the venue or online at www.djwe.qa. The exhibition concludes on Saturday.
