Peter Speake-Marin began his watchmaking training in Hackney technical college in 1985 and received his BHI credentials in 1987. To continue his studies in horology, he attended the WOSTEP refresher course in Neuchatel and returned in 1991 to complete WOSTEP's course on complicated watches. He worked for various companies before striking out on his own, notably as a restorer of antique pieces for Somlo Antiques in London's Piccadilly and as part of the team of master craftsmen at Renaud et Papi (Audemars Piguet's complications specialists) in Le Locle. In 2000 he took the bold, but inevitable for him, next step of starting his own company, The Watch Workshop. Located in Rolle on Lac Leman, between Geneva and Lausanne, Mr. Speake-Marin has built this workshop from the ground up to be able to craft unique complications and fine timepieces from scratch. While most of his work thus far has involved restorations and building complications for various companies, he has somehow found the time to begin designing and building his own pieces as well. His first signature piece was a tourbillon pocket watch with two power trains (!) and he is now devoting his attention to crafting a line of automatic wristwatches
