+**Thomas Prescher Haute Horlogerie** is the watch brand of watchmaker Thomas Prescher (sometimes written as "Präscher"), a member of the [[AHCI]] from [[2005]] to [[2018]].
+===== History =====
+Founded in [[2002]] in [[Ipsach]] near [[Biel]], Thomas Prescher Haute Horlogerie was created by German watchmaker Thomas Prescher. Leaving the German Navy in [[1991]], Prescher was a self-taught watchmaker but was selected to [[IWC]]'s apprentice watchmaker position. Just a single watchmaker was selected each year, yet Prescher excelled and was able to complete the four-year course in three years.

+Prescher then went to work for [[Audemars Piguet]]'s Germany operation before moving to [[Gübelin]] in [[Lucerne]]. There he began building custom timepieces in addition to repairing historic ones. Setting up his own workshop, he specialized in complicated historic pieces.
+===== Developments =====
+Prescher's first creation was the Tempusvivendi, which featured a double-[[retrograde]] complication in the form of a human figure which indicates the time at the press of a button. Prescher became an [[AHCI]] candidate in [[2003]] and joined the organization in [[2005]] after showing a double axis [[tourbillon]] with the Academy at [[BaselWorld]]. His Tourbillon Trilogy, shown with the AHCI at BaselWorld in [[2004]] contained single-, double-, and [[flying]] [[triple-axis tourbillon]]s in a single watch along with a [[constant force]] mechanism.
+A later important creation by Prescher was the [[2010]] Triple Axis Tourbillon Regulator, which replicates his unique flying triple-axis tourbillon.
+Prescher left the AHCI in [[2018]].
