It gave me an added confidence. He is quite a bit younger than I am and has bigger life goals in watchmaking. I was very impressed that he took 2 years of his life off, even at his age (he's not in his 20's btw :-) ) to go and get the legitimacy that a formal education could afford him, even though he had properly and successfully overhauled probably 1000's of Rolex and other watches in his tenure. He's a top notch guy and someone I can happily call my friend even though I have never met him in person.
Dalton is a great source. I met him and had dinner with him while he was in training here in Dallas at the RSC. He's a great resource for others to search out.
