About the Author:
Mark Wiles runs the workshop at Antique & Modern in East Barnet (an Omega accredited service center). After passing his Final British Horological Institute (BHI) examination in technical horology, he was granted a three-year apprenticeship by the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers (WCC). He thus maintained a proud family tradition dating back to the eighteenth century, as two of his ancestors, Steven and Edwin Wiles, were both distinguished clockmakers based in central London. In 2010, Mark became both a Freeman of the WCC and the BHI's youngest accredited Fellow.
