Watchmaking by George Daniels
I received my copy of the 2011 edition of George Daniels' "Watchmaking" today. The I've read the first couple of chapters, and I can see why this book fetches upwards of $1000 when it is out of print. It is extremely well written, and the illustrations are brilliant, along with the photography. If you just have a passing interest in the subject and love well made books, buy it, you won't regret it.
