Watchmaker Sherman Finds Silver Lining After Injury
Del Sherman of Norwalk describes watchmaking as a craft of skill and dedication. A World War II era tank mechanic who was paralyzed in Germany, he regained use of his legs in Switzerland while studying watchmaking and placed second in a class of 135. Now a veteran craftsman at a Norwalk jewelry store, he believes the trade will endure thanks to dedicated workers like him.
