About this product

Product Information

The early 2000s were an important period, spanning a time when mechanical watches had quite rightly retaken their place in the world market. We all may have a digital device in our pocket that is more accurate than a mechanical watch, but a timepiece has soul, personality, and history. The collection in this book is a step into the world of vintage watch collecting, with a range of photographs, intricate research, and accessible reference material that will intrigue both the casual and avid enthusiast. The collection showcases some of the most interesting, luxurious, and functional twentieth-century (1930-1980) mechanical timepieces ever to be produced, including Heuer's Autavia, Rolex's Submariner, Gallet's MultiChron, Zenith's De Luca, and the Unviersal Space Compax. AUTHOR: Alistair Thomas Gibbons grew up in Liverpool, England, and trained as a Special Effects Editor in London, and worked in Hong Kong and Germany during the 1990s. As a watch collector, he opened his ATG Vintage Watches Forum website in 2002, offering fully restored and serviced watches in excellent condition from little known brands which by the turn of the twentieth century had become a distant memory. He lives in Bristol, England, with his two sons Luke and Jack. SALES POINTS: . A detailed twentieth-century vintage watch guide by a watch collector for watch collectors . Over 100 vintage watches, their restoration, their histories, and exceptional pictures displaying their styles . A must have for the vintage watch collector 534 colour images

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.

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.

    I've got it at long last!

    I've been looking to get this book for some time. It arrived very quickly; was well-packed; and the contents have hooked me with its immaculate photographs and accompanying reviews of each watch. If you own any form of chronograph, wallow in this book for sheer enjoyment.
