SUMMARY:Mill Talk: Inside a Waltham pocket watch — How it works and why.
DESCRIPTION:Step inside the intricate world of fine watchmaking with Waltham’s own Chris Carey\, watchmaker and owner of Watertown Watch and Clock. In this live demonstration\, Chris will carefully disassemble a Waltham Model 1908 pocket watch\, revealing the artistry\, engineering\, and precision that made Waltham a world leader in timekeeping. \nAs he takes the watch apart piece by piece\, Chris will explain how each component functions\, what makes it essential\, and how Waltham’s innovations compared with those of earlier and later American\, Swiss\, and English timepieces. Through detailed visuals and hands-on examples\, attendees will gain a rare\, close-up look at the mechanical heart of a Waltham watch—and a deeper appreciation for the craftsmanship and ingenuity that powered the city’s historic watch industry. \nCarey was taught watch repair as a boy by his grandfather\, Pat Caruso\, a watchmaker at Waltham Watch Company. In 1993 he opened his own clock and watch repair shop\, Watertown Watch and Clock\, and now operates the shop with his wife\, Christine\, in Waltham. He has served as the secretary of the American Watchmakers-Clockmakers Institute (AWCI)\, he is the chairman of the board of the Massachusetts Watchmakers-Clockmakers Association\, and is past president of NAWCC New England Chapter 8. \nThis event is free\, but registration is required.

SUMMARY:Mill Talk: Disrupting Time
DESCRIPTION:How industrial espionage shaped the future of the American and Swiss watch industries. \nIn the fall of 1876\, two Swiss spies came to America and conducted some of the most covert and consequential industrial espionage in history\, changing the course of the global watch industry forever. “Disrupting Time” is a true historical narrative of business strategy\, espionage\, and consequences. It details the story of Jacques David and Theo Gribi who\, in 1876\, were commissioned by the Society of Jura Industries\, a Swiss trade association\, to acquire the secrets of America’s technology sector — the American watch industry. They captured their intelligence in a 130-page report that would remain mostly secret until 1992. \nSpeaker Bio: \nAaron Stark is the author of “Disrupting Time: Industrial combat\, espionage\, and the downfall of a great American company.” He currently serves as a director of business intelligence for a Fortune 500 company. Before entering business\, he was an assistant professor of economics at West Point\, with a specialization in finance. He holds an MBA from Harvard Business School with a focus on finance and business strategy\, and a BS in Economics from West Point. He is a veteran of the US Army with two combat tours in Afghanistan\, serving as an Apache helicopter pilot. \nThis event is free\, but registration is required. \n

SUMMARY:2nd Shift Concert: Hickman\, Anick & Woodsmith
DESCRIPTION:Make no mistake\, these three will move more air and rouse spirits higher than ensembles twice their size. \nIt’s a fine name for a fictitious law firm\, but Hickman\, Anick & Woodsmith make an even better power trio. The recipe is simple— Celia Woodsmith’s soulful\, powerhouse vocals and Jason Anick’s blindingly virtuosic fiddle playing\, grounded by “double bassist to the stars” Zachariah Hickman’s notorious low end growl and groove. \nHickman\, Anick and Woodsmith all lead vibrantly busy musical lives\, and we are truly lucky to have them close out our fall 2025 2nd Shift Music Series\, a rousing conclusion to one of curator Mark Erelli’s strongest seasons yet. \nDoors at 7:30 p.m.
