Opis

This vintage book contains a complete handbook on repairing watches, with information on clearing, fixing, adjusting, maintaining, and much more. Although old, the information within this book is timeless and will be of as much use to the modern reader as it was to those familiar with its original publication. Contents include: “Early Time Measures and Modern Watches”, “A Watch Movement and How to Take it Apart”, “Examining, Cleaning and Putting Together”, “Repairs and Adjustment”, “Glossary of Terms”, “Tools”, “Materials”, and “Parts and Processes Used in Watchwork”. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the history of clocks and watches.
