Yesterday, I serviced my first Accutron, a cal. 214. It was an absolute blast! Thanks to grad Joshua Scott of for the guidance. He recently came back to teach a lesson on the topic. As a teacher, to learn from a student is the highest measure of success. Thank you Joshua, for awarding me this honor.
Thank you to PJC Horology Graduate Joshua Scott of for coming back to the classroom to give an excellent lesson Accutron service.
Grateful for our incredible jewelry & watchmaking alumni who came back to pour into the next generation 💎
Your real-world insight, guidance, and support mean everything to our students. The legacy continues!

This was meant to be a barrel bridge for the prototype school watch I am making at PJC. After cutting the recesses for the setting mechanism, I developed a better process to cut them, meaning this piece was effectively useless as a barrel bridge. Instead, I used it to practice my decoration skills. I am quite pleased with the result.
Alumni Spotlight: Garrin Fraze

Garrin Fraze is not only a professional watchmaker educator but a former PJC Dragon Student. Now He’s back as the Program Coordinator for the Watchmaking Program at Paris Junior College in Texas and also runs his own watchmaking business called G. Fraze Horology. He trained in watchmaking, worked servicing luxury watches with legendary company “Rolex”, and now teaches the craft while creating content and building community around horology.

Serviced this lovely little Seiko 11A for my fiancée today. Ironically, the 11A is based on the same ebauche as the INT 1980 which many of my students are working on. This is the first fully jeweled watch that PJC Watchmaking students work on. We use this caliber to learn lubrication, jeweling, and regulation with the philosophy that if you can learn to service watches well at this scale, jumping up to standard sizes of 11.5’’’ is a walk in the park.

Thanks for looking!
We’ve made a ton of progress since I took over the watchmaking program at Paris Junior College but there is so much more room to grow, and you can help! Please reach out to me via email to learn more about how:

PJC’s watchmaking (horology) program is part of the Texas Institute of Jewelry Technology and has been training students in watch repair, restoration, and mechanical horology for decades, originally established in 1942

The current class totaling at 22 students is the LARGEST watchmaking class in decades. Precision. Craftsmanship. Legacy.

Garrin Fraze – Instructor/Program Coordinator

I had the opportunity to service this beautiful AP with the legendary cal. 2120 (JLC 920). Some really interesting architecture which is both beautiful and functional. The pallet fork and balance in particular have unique profiles to save space in this slim automatic movement. I also really like the jeweled support for the oscillating weight, which relieves pressure from the post.

New mainspring, cleaning, lubrication, and some hairspring adjustments performed in my shop. Now it’s ready to head home! I will share some more content featuring this watch once I have time to edit some footage. Been super busy with a new semester coming up, so content has taken a back seat.

Thanks for looking. Email for service inquiries.
Scroll to see the process of machining a great wheel pinion (≈3mm in length). I cut this pinion under the guidance of and at their workshop in Staunton, VA this weekend. I have learned a ton so far and will share more content from this week’s projects and lessons soon. Having a blast!
