As a watchmaker, how much of your day is actually spent at the bench doing work only YOU can do? I'd bet it's not 100%.

Ordering parts is a perfect example. With a system like Watchmaker App, you just enter the part numbers. From there, anyone with little to no training can place orders with your vendors on your behalf. It's something you can absolutely offload to a non-watchmaker.
