5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent pictures and info, February 19, 2009
This review is from: Grand Complications: High Quality Watchmaking Volume IV (Paperback)
As a luxury watch admirer I was looking for a good book displaying high quality pictures with some useful information. This book did not disappoint. I read some reviews of other books complaining about the small pictures, not this book - it has good sized pictures.
