After learning the ins and outs of the fourth generation of Knights of the Round Table and the fact that it has nothing to do with Jin Ran, the senior brothers in Maimaimai and the studio began to be curious.

After Jin Ran returned to Switzerland, what kind of theme would he choose to pay tribute to his master.

Although it is impossible to understand why the core values of King Arthur's Knights of the Round Table have such a high influence in Western culture, it is still understandable why the watchmakers of Roger Dubuis would think of the concept of Knights of the Round Table to create the brand's most representative and top-of-the-line watch collection.

In its heyday, King Arthur's Knights of the Round Table were said to have numbered as many as 150.

The most famous of these is the Knights of the Twelve Round Table.

Gradually, the folk began to use the twelve knights of the round table to summarize the knights of the King Arthurian table.

The number of twelve coincides with the twelve scales of the clock.

Seeing the story of European culture with twelve, it is natural to wonder how medicine is integrated into the dial design of clocks.

The dedication to European culture is one of the hallmarks of the Roger Dubuis brand.

The concept of the Knight of the Round Table is considered to be the genius of Roger Dubuis.

The Knights of the Round Table collection is the representative of the highest craftsmanship of the Roger Dubuis brand, and to be able to participate in the creation of the Knights of the Round Table is the highest affirmation of the designers of the Roger Dubuis brand.

If Jin Ran wants to pay tribute to his mentor, he will definitely choose to continue the concept of the brand, and will not simply choose twelve scales, but the "twelve" with specific meaning that is combined with culture.

Before Jin Ran decided to return to China to take over the intangible cultural heritage inheritor's studio, he told the old man that watch maintenance is the road of an excellent watchmaker after all, and the experience of repairing clocks and watches will be of great help to further watch making. Many well-known independent watchmakers started by repairing haute horlogerie, and they became excellent watchmakers as they practiced.

In order to fulfill his grandfather's wish, the old man believes it or not, and he doesn't know if he buys it.

But the second and third brothers of Q&D's studio must have believed it, and they have a new direction of effort, and from time to time they have to cross the height of Haute Horlogerie repair and send out some discussions about watchmaking.

At first, the second and third senior brothers both thought that the fourth generation of Knights of the Round Table was designed by Jin Ran.

After reading the reports on the master's posthumous works that they found, the brothers in the studio, who were not willing to "eat melons" just in the field of watchmaking, began their own conjectures.

After Jin Ran's return to Roger Dubuis, what kind of cultural concept will be used to replace the twelve moments, in order to continue Roger Dubuis's tradition rooted in European culture?

The senior brothers who know Roger Dubuis's past style also discussed for a while what are the famous twelve in European culture.

The second senior brother Lin Yuchen did not hesitate to choose the twelve disciples in the Bible.

The third senior brother, Tang Yifan, thinks that concepts like the 12 zodiac signs that are originally related to time are more likely.

The two argued and argued, and no one could convince anyone, so they went to the senior brother to "comment".

The senior brother just smiled, no one stood in the team, he felt that like the old man, he was already very happy if he cultivated a watch for a lifetime.

The second senior brother and the third senior brother were accustomed to the style of the senior brother who liked to teach by example and did not like words, so they went to buy and buy to "stand in line" for themselves, as if, at this stage, whoever said "reasoned", Jin Ran would do it in the same way.

Mai Mai Mai is not keen on participating in the daily competition between the two senior brothers, and sent each of them a slightly naughty sentence: "I don't read much, I don't understand European culture, wait for me to go back and study hard, and then see if any of you say it is more reasonable." ”

This is the maintenance department of Q&D Studio, the daily "technical discussion" during the lunch break.

It doesn't make sense, but it's the way life is.

The brothers' enthusiasm for watchmaking is not to be discouraged by buying, buying, buying, buying.

In the world of high-end clocks, the once well-informed buying boss knows better than anyone else.

Repairing watches and becoming watchmakers is the growth path of European craftsmen.

In China, there is an insurmountable gap between watch repair and watchmaking.

It is true that many master watchmakers in Europe start with repairs, but the premise is that they must be supported by the watch schools and watch studios that have blossomed all over Europe.

Domestic watchmakers can learn the top clock repair skills, but there is no way to learn the top clock making technology, unless they are talented or have a famous teacher to guide the way.

Clock repair, as long as the original appearance is restored, if it is an antique clock, repair the old as before, if it is a contemporary clock, it will be restored to a new state.

Watchmaking is restoration, while watchmaking is creation, which belongs to different categories.

To say that the repair of clocks and clocks is to restore the original appearance does not mean that the repair does not require creativity.

If the old man wants to repair a 300-year-old clock, he has to look for accessories from 300 years ago, and what his old man most often does is this kind of "tearing down the east wall and making up the west wall".

The most common and best way to repair an antique watch is to remove the parts of a clock that has been damaged beyond repair, or other parts of machinery and equipment of the same period, and put them in the watch that needs to be repaired.

The old man also tried to dismantle the parts of three antique clocks that were completely scrapped and had no way to be restored, and combined them into a "brand-new" antique clock.

This is the unique skill of the inheritor of intangible cultural heritage, and if you take it to a professional appraisal agency, you can also identify the antiques that have been "handed down" in which era.

The biggest difference between repair and watchmaking is the design concept.

Repairs don't need to be conceptual, they just need to be adapted to local conditions. But watchmaking is a completely different concept.

It is unlikely that you will be able to go from a repairman to a watchmaker just by talking on paper in a domestic studio.

The status of the watch repairer in China is also a completely different concept than in Europe.

But so what?

There's no way to dislike the Q&D studio, the serious and relaxed atmosphere.

It's always good to have dreams and expectations, isn't it?

Life has always been imperfect, it always gives people all kinds of challenges and grinds.

Buy, buy, buy, buy, buy

But after the ordeal, life will always leave some small blessings.

Small, but indeed happy.

It's like buying, buying, buying and living now.

No more tired every day, no longer in a hurry to prove yourself.

Know what you can do.

Know the direction of 3-50,000 yuan a semester.

I didn't have the sense of crisis that I had when I first started working, and as long as I didn't work for a day, I might starve myself to death from buying Lego.

Do the most normal and ordinary work and live the most normal and ordinary life.
