Vintage Watch Guide  2007-02-07
This is a great reference however it has very limited information and only a fraction of collectible Watches are listed.I will admit the photography is excellent!
100 Years of Vintage Watches: Identification and Price Guide  2005-09-30
Disappointing. Little if any information about European and English watches. Misleading title should be call American watches and a few others.
Unless you are into American watches - a waste of time and money
A nice coffee table book.  2005-03-02
The book has thousands of pictures of watches, mostly pocket ones. However, it does not cover the history of such watches It's just a picture timetable of watch development.
Beautiful Photos, Valuable Reference 2004-07-03
I found this book to be excellent reading. It includes hundreds of beautiful photos and a brief but fascinating historical summary for several well-known foreign and American watch manufacturers. Even a person who knows nothing about watches would enjoy browsing through this book. Highly recommended.
