Review: Great for Watch heads gift - Big book, clean and fresh - partner loves the book - really good for watch heads genuinely into and appreciate all watches Review: A lovely book - I purchased this book at the signing event in Ludlow, at Black Bough (co founded by the author). This is a lovely high quality book and the featured watches are beautifully photographed in great detail. Their stories are told here and really bring them to life. I’d say this is a great book for horologists to dip into and a great introduction to horological history for beginners.

A lovely book

Not as you would expect
A large heavy book that describes watches over the last 500 years, but only exclusively expensive ones

Another picture book
There were quite a few glaring admissions and a Swiss bias.

I highly recommend this book for anyone who is a watch lover or enjoys history. The book was nicely wrapped and features great pictures and information about watches. Even if you aren’t a watch lover, it’s a very unique coffee table book!
