This book delves into the intricate world of watchmaking, exploring the mechanics and design principles that underpin the creation of a precise and elegant timepiece. The author, a skilled horologist, draws upon his extensive knowledge and experience to provide a detailed analysis of…the various components that make up a watch, examining the different approaches taken by manufacturers in Switzerland, England, and the United States.
