About this product

Product Information

I've paged through stacks of books on the history of watches. . . . But I hadn't come across a book that actually moved me until I picked up A Man and His Watch. The volume is filled with heartfelt stories. -T: The New York Times Style Magazine Paul Newman wore his Rolex Daytona every single day for 35 years until his death in 2008. The iconic timepiece, probably the single most sought-after watch in the world, is now in the possession of his daughter Clea, who wears it every day in his memory. Franklin Roosevelt wore an elegant gold Tiffany watch, gifted to him by a friend on his birthday, to the famous Yalta Conference where he shook the hands of Joseph Stalin and Winston Churchill. JFK's Omega worn to his presidential inauguration, Ralph Lauren's watch purchased from Andy Warhol's personal collection, Sir Edmund Hillary's Rolex worn during the first-ever summit of Mt. Everest . . . these and many more compose the stories of the world's most coveted watches captured in A Man and His Watch. Matthew Hranek, a watch collector and NYC men's style fixture, has traveled the world conducting firsthand interviews and diving into exclusive collections to gather the never-before-told stories of 76 watches, completed with stunning original photography of every single piece. Through these intimate accounts and Hranek's storytelling, the watches become more than just timepieces and status symbols; they represent historical moments, pioneering achievements, heirlooms, family mementos, gifts of affection, and lifelong friendships.

Terms and conditions of the sale
All our items are new unless otherwise stated.
Please note that the image of the item's cover shown by eBay may differ from the cover on the actual item. Publishers change their covers frequently and we will normally send the latest edition of the item that is available; if this is important to you and you require a specific cover then please write to us before purchase.
Please be aware that multiple orders will generally be sent separately. This is to ensure you receive each item as speedily as possible.
Please always contact us through eBay and not via our email address.
All Items are dispatched either from us or direct from one of our suppliers.
Unfortunately we are unable to offer any discount for multiple purchases as each item may be sent separately.
Sometimes when stocks of items are running low we might send items from a third-party supplier to ensure that we do not go out of stock and so that items are received by our buyers as soon as possible. Should we successfully source the item from an alternative supplier, the item will be dispatched to our buyers direct from that supplier, and as such, the packaging may bear the branding of this alternative supplier. By bidding on, or purchasing this item, you are agreeing to us sharing your name and address details with that 3rd party supplier to allow us to fulfil our contractual obligations to you.

Sadly the postman failed to deliver the first item sent, but the seller replied to my query quickly and sent a replacement item straight away. Can't really ask for more than that. Well packaged and the book received was brand new as described. Recommended seller. Many thanks.

    Title does exactly what it says on the tin.

    I gave the 5 stars because the outer sleeve alone is a simple work of art. Plus the stories behind that watches of the likes of Steve McQueen and Paul Newman.
