Retro Watches: The Modern Collectors’ Guide

About the book

The book Retro Watches describes individualistic pieces that very few people have seen, and even fewer own.

Retro Watches is an excellent book guide for anyone interested in watches, but also looking for something a little different. The book collects the most interesting, visually striking, and widespread watch models from little-known but influential watch brands, along with overlooked but brilliant pieces from major players. The book describes over a hundred watch models, specially photographed for this book and supplemented with accessible, informative texts discussing the design, history, and interesting features of the watches, as well as information panels with details on rarity, value, and other key attributes. The book also contains interesting information regarding the cultural and fashion history of watch design and the many innovations of the 60s, 70s, and 80s.

Over 400 photos and illustrations on 256 pages.

A beautiful book with valuable information that would be hard to find elsewhere in such a comprehensive form.
