Wristwatch Annual 2012:The Catalog of Producers,Prices, Models, and Specifacations.,
This review is from: Wristwatch Annual 2012: The Catalog of Producers, Prices, Models, and Specifications (Paperback)
I am doing a little research before I make a decision on what make of watch I would like to buy over the next year or two. I am drawn to Breitling and due to money constraints a used one. This book gave me more than enough information on not only Breitling but all the other quality makes which are out there. A very easy book to find what you are looking for and the photographs are excellent too.

Yearly Watches,
By Luis F. - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Wristwatch Annual 2012: The Catalog of Producers, Prices, Models, and Specifications (Paperback)
This is my fourth year buying this guide. Has helped me save and back off from buying watches I really want, but can live without until the price is right. This is extremely important when considering collectible and heirloom worthy watches. In the 5 to 25 thousand range.....

Still a great product. I just wish it was more comprehensive.,
By S. Kosloske - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Wristwatch Annual 2012: The Catalog of Producers, Prices, Models, and Specifications (Paperback)
I like all the watch-jargon info, and the pics/descriptions of the movements. But I wish I knew how they decided what models to put in the catalog. Only 1 page of B&R watches? That would be OK if it only included the newest models, but it doesn't.It's great to see many of the smaller watch houses getting some time in the catalog, there were several watches/companies I hadn't heard of before, and some I am now interested in. And including the list prices for that watches is a requirement, nice to see that. Of course, some are "price on request", but that is to be expected for the unique and million dollar models. |
