watchmaker

The men who make it are craftsmen: the millwright, the watchmaker, the canal builder, the blacksmith.What makes the Industrial Revolution so peculiarly English is that it is rooted in the countryside.

发起工业的都是些手工业，技工、钟表匠、运河开凿，以及铁匠，正是由于业根植乡间才，使工业具有如此鲜明的英国特色。

When the Civil War started, a watchmaker was repairing Lincoln's watch.He engraved some words on it, which read in part: "Fort Sumpter was attacked by the rebels" and "thank God we have a government.

据悉，美国南北战争打响时，一名钟表匠正在修理林肯的怀表，便在表内刻下一些话："森普特堡遭叛军袭击"和"感谢主，我们有一个政府"。
