Well done Ken...

and also Stephen for having 'suffered' through the 3 days of the Akadamie at the home of ALS to obtain your zertifikat! smile I wish I could have done mine in Glashutte instead of HK but nevertheless it was a memorable occasion and reading your post brought back happy memories.

I shall never look at the wavy patten on my 1815 MP hommage quite the same way again after seeing the antique piece of machinery from 1820 that created it. Kudos to ALS for such imagination and execution.

 Pls. excuse the poor pic.


Thanks Ken for a thoroughly enjoyable post. smile

Cheers

Fernando

Thank you Ken for the awesome report! As a Lange AKADEMIE Graduate myself, I think you've done more than what I've done... That means I have to go back to school... And this is not an easy school to get into (difficult application process)...

WHAT A TRAINING SESSION...!

I had the pleasure of meeting Joanna last night again and I have to say her depth of knowledge is just impressive. I also particularly like the picture that you showed for the engraver team. I *believe* I have products from 3 or 4 of them and would be koo...

ALS+KIH = one of the best formula to enjoy a report

Dear Ken, One more time, thanks to your report, I had the feeling that someone in ALS love to cuddle their customers. I find that, in this era of extreme standardization and virtualization, it's a very good news! One more time, thanks to your report, I ex... 

One thing I forgot to mention...
