DonCorson's post announces the AHCI's 30th-anniversary exhibition at the Musée International d'Horlogerie, a significant event for independent watchmaking enthusiasts. This historical exhibition provides a rare opportunity to explore the evolution of horological design and technical constructions from leading independent watchmakers over three decades.

To commemorate its 30th anniversary, the AHCI has organised a historical exhibition at the Musée International d'Horloge at La Chaux-des-Fonds from from the 6th of June to the 27th of September of 2015.

The exhibition narrates the development of independent watchmaking over the past 30 years, offering great insights into the evolution of horological design and technical constructions.

Is it reasonable to expect, Don, that we may see some pieces from the masters' 'back catalogues' - perhaps even pieces by former AHCI members? Now THAT would be an exhibition! Cheers, pplater.
