Hi,

Can you give us the book number thingy on it that all books have.

I can only find 1001 wristwatches from 1925 onwards or is that the same?

Mrs Bond got me a copy of this for my birthday back in July. Has a lot of very desirable timepieces and lots of information on how they work. It is a very good read and reference IMHO with sections on chronographs, pilots, GMT/Worldtimers, Calendar watches and a couple of other sections which I can't remember off the top of my head
