Retro Watches, Paperback / softback Book

Retro Watches Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

An accessible, design-savvy collector’s guide to the world of unusual, rare and dazzlingly retro watches. Retro Watches is a popular, accessible collector’s guide for anyone who wants to make a statement with the watch they wear, but who wants to choose a timepiece that is very different from the ‘classic’ and very mainstream watches by the major Swiss brands.

It brings together the most intriguing, visually striking and ‘out-there’ watch designs from little-known but influential watch brands, along with overlooked but brilliant pieces from the major players.

One hundred watch models are featured, specially photographed for the book and accompanied by accessible, informative texts discussing the watch’s design, its intriguing features, and its rarity and value.

The book also dives into the cultural and fashion history of watch design and the many innovations from the 60s, 70s and 80s.
