The must-have guide for the collector of fine wristwatches with complete information—including prices—on over 1,400 models made by more than 130 international brands
The Wristwatch Annual has become a classic for aficionados of fine watchmaking. It's a one-stop shop for watch buying, offering complete specs and prices on over 1,400 models by more than 130 international brands, while also tracking the latest developments in the watch industry. In addition to the extensive A-Z section, which includes many new entries, senior editor Marton Radkai presents editorial features that take a closer look at a number of exciting American brands on the market today.
Presenting a wide range of wristwatches, with exquisite color photographs and complete specifications for each watch, Wristwatch Annual provides collectors with a wealth of information close at hand. The book is arranged alphabetically by producer—within each producer's section is a brief history of the brand (with contact information)—and specifications and materials for each watch, including price, movement, special features, complications, case, dial, band, and variations. Also included are a glossary and a guide to watch maintenance.
The clear photography, structured layout, and lively writing also makes this book a pleasure to read or just browse. This year's edition features updated and expanded content, focusing on new American brands.
Industry Reviews
Praise for previous editions of Wristwatch Annual
An absolute staple in any serious collector’s regular reading material.”TheWatchLounge.com
Wristwatch Annual. . .covers models and specs of fine watches. . . but it is the unusual makers, all with text describing company characteristics, that make the large softcover especially interesting.”
Arizona Daily Star
An invaluable source of information for anyone who wants a thorough survey of the new additions to the market.” Plaza Watch
