Hello -

I was debating the thought of putting this book in an IHC Auction, but was under the impression maybe everyone already had an original hard print..

The BOOK is wonderful source of information, if you have never had the chance to take a peek inside.

Let me know if anyone is interested...

Well, not everyone has a copy. I'd be interested, depending on the price of course.

Jon, ya beat me to the punch.. I got one of those that just sits.. Was thinking about selling it on this site.. Have to see if there's interest.

Bruce,

LoL - my friend...

I am still trying to figure out what I have doubles of... The Swigart book is the holy grail of the Watch part books, imho. Could never sell my only copy - never (w/o I would be directionless)...

Doug -

Was thinking an auction format if there was enough interest! I know you IL boys have deep pockets! Look at Mean Gene and his 16sz IL brothers

Thanks

Those of us in IL do not all have deep pockets, well maybe if your referring to how much lint mine hold
I have a electronic version of this book. Best investment I have made this year in information.

Gimme one!

Jon

You have a mistaken idea about my pockets.

Besides that, I'm a tightwad (I mean thrifty).

Just ask Gene.

Doug

Jon, any Seth stuff in there?

New York Standard - Eric

Waltham, Elgin, Illinois, Hamilton, some South Bend, Bulova, etc...

Nice breakout of stems, mainsprings, crowns, bows, etc...

Jon,
One of the benefits (for me) of being a member of the IHC185 is the fact I can ask a question and the answer is given to me (and then some) in a very short amount of time. It is well worth my dues. My book is one of the bound versions (plastic binding). It however stops at Bulova.
If you put yours up, I will wait and sell mine at a later date..
