1: watch the watches
Of all the watch catalogs and annuals this one is the most comprhensive. A quality publication with much info regarding high end mechanical watches. Not perfect, some prices are not recorded, but a must have for watch lovers.
|
2: Wristwatch Annual 2008
Great compliation of wristwatches for those who want to know what's new to the wristwatch world. Great info on the manufacturers and their history.
|
3: Plenty of info and pics, but still lacks both of these
This large book has a wealth of information on many watch types and styles, and primarily showcases a limited array of various manufacurer's offerings. Plenty of photos, and information on many brands, a few of which are very obscure and known to only a few true watch aficionados. Each listing, however, gives only a cursury history of the brand, and only a few of the watches they showcase. Helpful for the beginner, although most watches are financially out of reach for most people. A nice inclusion though is the addition of new brands, and rare watches they offer. Obviously not all manufacturers are included, or should be, and while the lack of certain brands and individual watches is frustrating at times, most people will be quite satisfied to drool over the many pictures and will undoubtedly come away from it with a broader knowledge and appreciation of horology.

4: Great book for those who love watches
If you like fine watches then this is a great book. It has a good range from almost all the major manufacturers and includes prices. Highly recommended.
|
5: Very nice catalog
I have read the reviews here and have to disagree. How can anyone give this book just 1 star.
Its a very nice book and has some great quality pictures. It does not have too much content but its not that sort of book, it is a 2008 catalog. The author has done a super job putting it togther.
