This passion led him to a three-year apprenticeship in antiquarian horology at The Clock Workshop in Hampshire, supported by both the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers and the Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust. Alongside his apprenticeship, Lewis completed the British Horological Institute\u2019s distance learning course, earning him MBHI status.\nIn 2024, Lewis joined the clock department at Bonhams and is based in their New Bond Street headquarters in London, where he continues to share his expertise and enthusiasm for horology with collectors and enthusiasts alike.\nLewis is passionate about preserving the art and history of clockmaking and enjoys sharing his discoveries with a growing community on Instagram, connecting with people both inside and outside the world of horology.\nIn addition to his work in horology, Lewis sits on the Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust\u2019s Youth Advisory Board, where he hopes to play a small part in supporting the future of heritage
