An interesting exhibition of works by former pupils can be viewed and admired on 140 square meters. Competition entries are also on display. The ZeitZentrum Watchmaking School has been taking part in competitions organized by the Institut de Formation à la Haute Horlogerie since 1994.
As an illustration, a work of art stands on a small stone base. The clock is around 40 cm high, has a perpetual calendar, displays the date, day of the week and month and shows the phases of the moon. 286 parts were made by hand. It took three apprentices around 1300 hours to create this marvel.
Historical replicas also tick in the museum. For example, a tower keeper's clock from the 15th century was made based on an illustration.
