willy Skrev:A very good watchmaker can assemble about 5 watches a week from start to finish . So work out how many watchmakers they need to make ca. 800,000 watches a year .

Where did you get that figure from? The movement - he can assemble many many per day - as routine work, it takes very little time to assemble eg an 2824

I have seen it done i 10 minutes, I and would think it could be done quicker - if things are correctly placed - definately less than 20 min
Think about a full service - out - take everything apart - change som screws - oil and assemble - including new gadget - 800 kr

5 a week, must include hand carving the case, handpaiting the dial, cutting out each bridge by hand and manually rolling the balls for the ball-bearing

I think it´s a matter of from when you start timing the prucidure. This video

shows how it takes 10 minuts to make half the Watch accepled.
I can not find part 2, but it shows that a complet assaply takes more than 10 minuts.
