This is perhaps not the best place to ask, as peoples' opinions will be swayed by their passion and interest for watches. The difference between an apprenticeship as a watch maker vs being a plumber/builder/electrician etc is that fixing a luxury watch is entirely optional. If the economy take a hit, so too will your business of fixing expensive watches.

Watch making is a great career, provided you have a keen interest in horology and want to get paid to do it every day. But don't be under any illusions, it isn't going to make you a millionaire and will to a certain degree be susceptible to trends in demand for luxury watches.
