Flores, Joseph wurde geboren im Jahre 1932 in Villers le Lac, Frankreich
. I grew up in the watchmaking business but did not receive any professional training. I simply observed my father, who was himself self-taught. However, this provided me with something more than knowledge: a passion, which is the most important driving force. At the age of 20, I became infected with the virus of the type of watchmaking known as "antique". For more than 30 years I have edited the "Horlogerie ancienne" [Antique Watchmaking] magazine published by AFAHA, Besançon. I am honoured to have won the Gaïa prize, in the History category. Finally I have written some books on watchmaking, including "Perpétuelles à roue de rencontre" ( out of stock).
