Watch collectors do not only focus on the latest designs and watch releases from emerging manufacturers and new editions of these types of books often only include details of new watch releases . This book may have been superceded by a new edition, but this edition is at a bargain basement price now, and therefore it represents excellent value for what it contains. Plenty of information and consistently good images of examples of watches discussed. Since no single book can hope to cover every watch that has been made, it helps to build a bit of a personal reference library. This makes a good addition to that library.
