Wristwatch Annual 2000: The Catalog of Producers, Models, and Specifications (Wristwatch Annual, 2000)

Rating:
Summary: Good resource for the dealers
Review: The 2000 update to this annual "catalog" has had a few improvements over the past years. It has never been a complete guide much less a thorough guide for those wanting to know a comprehensive resource of modern higher-grade watches. Information and pictures are limited at best. The author simply gives one a synopsis view of more important modern timepieces. The annual guide does serve as an invaluable resource to those who are in 'the Biz'. The "Catalog" does a great job of detailing watch movement manufacturers and thier products.

Summary: Great reading for watch fans - don't expect miracles though
Review: This book is tremendous value, with great pictures of the fine watch brands current ranges. Potential buyers should not expect too much in the way of detailed technical information however. If you treat it as a reasonably comprehensive, non-biased catalogue for some fine Swiss watch brands, you wont go far wrong.
