A new trade school has set up shop in Texas, promising to equip aspiring watchmakers with the skills necessary to succeed in one of the most competitive industries. The Rolex-sponsored academy is attracting top talent from around the world, with some students already receiving job offers worth upwards of $95,000. Located in a state-of-the-art facility near Dallas, the Big Texan Watchmaking Academy is designed to provide hands-on training and mentorship under the guidance of experienced horologists who have worked for luxury brands like Rolex. The academy’s curriculum includes courses on traditional watchmaking techniques, as well as cutting-edge technologies such as 3D printing and computer-aided design.
