In this episode of In The Metal, we welcome Henrik Korpela, the founder and Principal of the K&H Watchmaking Competence Centre in watchmaking's Swiss heartland near Le Locle, who gives us a rare and exclusive insight into a life and career dedicated to perpetuating the array of skills required of a master watchmaker.

In his role as an educator and mentor to the current and future generations of watchmakers from all around the world, as they pass through his fully independent watchmaking school, Henrik is uniquely positioned to help in the development of tomorrow's prodigies, who benefit from his many years studying and as a teacher at the WOSTEP academy.

If you have ever considered what it actually takes to become a watchmaker, or how to get into the profession, then this conversation is one you absolutely need to see. Each week In The Metal takes a look beyond the façade and into the lesser-seen corners of independent watchmaking, where the true heart of this centuries-old craft beats, and it does not get more behind-the-scenes than into the workshops where young and emerging talents practice and learn at the K&H Watchmaking Competence Centre.

If you're not yet familiar, In The Metal is your inside scoop on the very best of independent watchmaking, which is brought to you by @irishwatchguy Johnny McElherron of TheWatchPress.com and the legend who is the former lead guitarist with thrash metal icons Anthrax, and now present day Master of Complications and the vanguard for US independent watchmaking, Mr Dan Spitz. is a video/audio stream/broadcast/podcast which takes an informal, behind the scenes look at the fascinating world of independent watchmaking.
