“Tell me about watchmaking, clock repair, all of that,” Peter said. “Did you go to college for it, vo-tech or something like that?”
“My father was a watchmaker,” Sylar answered, as if that explained everything.
Peter snorted. “My father was a lawyer; didn’t make me one.”
Sylar gave Peter a long, penetrating look. “No … no, he didn’t,” he said with soft wonder. Peter tilted his head in curiosity at how Sylar had taken that, but Sylar went on, “It was on the job training. Those of us in the trade tend to call it ‘timepiece restoration’ or ‘chronograph repair’.”
