How do watches work?

[nitsypee]

I've been interested in watches for a few years, but would like to know more about how the mechanics work.

Are there any "beginners guide to how watches work" books out there? (I had a quick search on Amazon but couldn't see anything apart from ones written for experts.)

Thanks Nemesis - good ideas.
I found a couple of videos, too, like the one below - interesting.
