Important, obscure terms are mentioned that aren't defined anywhere. Brands are mentioned offhand without any context. Important watches are described in some detail (like the Santos) then not pictured. The index is sorely lacking in entries. It feels more like a large, casual (and under-edited) brochure than a serious reference. For a book of this nature of this size, I expect to occasionally need to pull out a computer to look something up, but I don't think I should have to every few minutes.Also, there're strange errors that leave me scratching my head. For example, on page 195, there's a picture of what's described as the Grand Seiko SBGA11 dated in the book as from 2010... except the dial is the 2017-onward SBGA211! Not to mention most of the watches pictured date no later than the middle of this decade... Now that I'm almost done with this book, I'm left lowering my review from four to three stars because it's really quite an average book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good but could have been better. *by B***W on Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2019* Overall I like the book but it could be improved. The photography is decent but isn’t the greatest for detail shots which need great lighting and contrast for movement details. You’ll find some blown out highlights and details lost in shadows for some of those. A few typos also made it past the copy editors.Lack of movement shots is probably the biggest downfall of the book in general. Many historical or interesting movements are referenced but then never shown and 95% of the book is pictures of the watch face. There are also watches mentioned in the scarce text that are never shown in pictures which is a little disappointing as well for what is largely a picture book.It’s definitely worth a purchase and a nice book overall. It’s probably that it had such good potential that I was slightly, but not terribly, disappointed. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Great Book to Help Train the Collector's Eye *by M***A on Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2020* This book is a photo collection featuring some of the most famous watches of fifty iconic brands. The photos are beautiful and that is enough to make this book enjoyable. However, I think the real value of this book is that it helps the collector develop a critical eye for beauty. The joy of watch collecting is in the subtle differences between different watches. This is a great book for helping a budding collector refine their understanding of what is beautiful and therefore desirable.
