The Illustrated Directory of Watches is a beautiful book that will provide watch enthusiasts with a fully illustrated and comprehensive book on all things watches. From historical timelines and facts, this beautifully photographed book will inform and excite both the novice and veteran watch aficionado.

Enclosed is perhaps the most ambitious and lavishly illustrated history of watches for the collector and general reader. It shows in clear detailed pictures over one thousand important landmark timepieces from all the classic watchmakers from the 1930s to the present day. Organized A-Z by manufacturer, each watch will be shown face on and in some cases some will include reverse and internal views. Each watch will be specially photographed in the studio for this book.
In addition to the beautiful design, The Illustrated Directory of Watches includes a comprehensive introduction on the history of wristwatches and a quick reference listing of every piece featured.
