HE WAS SECOND TO NONE IN MODERN DAY WATCHMAKING HE HAS BEEN COMPARED TO "BREGUET". THE BOOK IS REASONABLE AND FULL OF MANY HANDS ON TECHNICAL SUBJECTS INCLUDEING AN EXPLANATION OF HIS CO-AXIAL ESCAPEMENT. EDDIE

Bila WirriganwaltersHi Eddie,
I have been toying with the idea of buying this book for a while now and am still yet to commit. After reading your post I have now been convinced to do so.
Thanks,
Bila

Clive DriscollI agree. I met him quite a few times. An incredible man.
His autobiography is a brilliant story and another good book to get hold of.
