Well done reference book for Military Horologists. It is the first illustrated guide devoted specifically to the highly collectable field of military watches and clocks. Covers deck watches, pocket, wrist and clocks. Current prices are provided (in Sterling) for timepieces covered. This book is highly recommended to all fellow military timepiece collectors!

A nice book, with good photos and useful information. I am a beginner in this area, but I have to admit that the book has a lot to offer. Of course there are enough watches missing, but it is an overall good work. The prices seem to be out-of-date.
Highly recommended, though!

A good concise book with lots of quality pictures and and idea of value in sterling. A worthwhile investment for collectors. My only complaint is that it is almost completely dedicated to watches. Only a small section in the back gives any information about all the ship's, tank, airplane and other clocks of military interest.

-In my opinion, is an interesting book about military watches.All the explanation are good and is simple to reed.I dindn't find much information about german pilot watch of the second war two: not much about Hanhart and others watches.The same for german watches of werhmacht; you can find information about in my opinion could be longer.In general, i think is a very interesting book!!!

Amazon sucks, and have stopped responding to my emails. I ordered this two months ago and somehow my order was automatically processed without me confirming my credit card info, address, etc. My packages were shipped to an address at which I hadn't lived in over two years and Amazon could hardly care less. I've started using Amazon to find stuff I'm looking for and then ordering it directly from the merchant's site. Less chance of things going bad that way.
