The Watch Repairer's Manual: Second Edition

I've been through a ton of information, and this is the most helpful and useful.Having just started this book and had a good flip through the content, I can see that it takes me through every detail of knowledge needed to tear down, clean and reassemble.Additionally, there is a wealth of extra information about common issues and breaking down and repairing individual items.There is a good length to the book and plenty of detailed diagrams. The basic makeup of a watch is largely unchanged, so ignore the concerns in other comments about pictures not being from the past decade... it does not matter. This book gives you the knowledge you need to work with virtually any timepiece, and the gaps can easily be filled in with a quick google search for your specific movement.I've included pics of the contents as something I wish I could have seen before buying. However, I was glad to see how much was covered and feel like this is a helpful manual for tackling watch repair.I've sourced a lot of info, which is one of the best guides I've found.

Stop faffing about and buy this book! This book is quite simply a Master Piece. Try describing in words the intricate workings of how a watch operates. The book was written many years ago, but nothing significant has changed and the book has stood the test of time. Why is it still in print? Because it's still one of the best! See attached the detailed illustrations. It is full of exploded views and text describing the detail of operations. It's a "Haynes Manual" for watches, when accompanied by pictures and images from the Web, as well as countless free Youtube videos, you'll be well set for having some Fun with Watches. Hope this helps.

Purchased as a gift and very much used

Good book, but a little old fashioned.

Quick delivery, pristine condition, full satisfaction.

This reprint off a original American book is very good,for people who wish to actually make - repair watches.The book is A5 size just a little larger than the original and a big improvement.

Excellent

Um dos melhores livros sobre a relojoaria, consertos, manutenção de relógios. Altamente didático. Livro em inglês pois não existe no Brasil.

Very well written book with easily understood concepts and great illustrations showing how it actually works. You get the excellent reference text and reference drawings Perfect for anyone who wants to learn watch repair.

I’m looking into watch repair as a hobby and find this book an excellent source of info as I start out. This book also contains detailed info required as my experience increases. In my opinion this is a must have book for anyone looking into watch repair.

soy un principiante en la relojeria, y soy autodidacta. Este libro me ha dado las bases para iniciar mi proceso de aprendizaje. Las fotos son en blanco y negro y a veces no muy claras, sin embargo, las explicaciones muy sencillas y precisas. Me gusto!

Costly price must be lower 50%
