A watchmaker, as the name infers, works primarily on watches, not Clock s. Some watchmakers work on clocks, but the skills and tools needed to work on a watch aren't always applicable when working on a clock. Historically, in England , watchmakers would have to undergo a seven year Apprenticeship and then join a Guild , such as the '' Clockmakers' Company of London'', before selling their first watch. WATCHMAKER AS METAPHOR William Paley and others used the watchmaker in his Famous Analogy to infer for the existence of God (the Teleological Argument ) . Richard Dawkins later applied this analogy in his book '' The Blind Watchmaker ,'' arguing that Evolution is blind in that it cannot look forward and is random. SEE ALSO
