Peu d'objets combinent l'�l�gance et le statut comme la montre. Un m�lange de m�canique pr�cise, de savoir-faire, de mat�riaux nobles et d'innovation distingue les exemples les plus remarquables. Les montres dites intelligentes jouant un r�le plus important, le monde des montres est en transition. Cependant, les montres classiques � mouvement m�canique ne dispara�tront pas des poignets, car le tic-tac d'une montre m�canique a �t� et continuera d'�tre le battement de cœur de la culture humaine.

Les lecteurs peuvent r�galer leurs yeux et leurs esprits sur une chronique magnifiquement illustr�e et bien document�e des meilleures d'horlogerie au monde. The Watch Book Compendium pr�sente plus de 40 marques de montres, des manufacturiers hauts de gamme tels que PatekPhilippe, Rolex et Cartier , des montres du segment "luxe abordable" aux montres chronom�triques, la cr�me de la cr�me. Nous explorons leurs caract�ristiques uniques ainsi que leurs bizarreries. Nous d�couvrons les avanc�es remarquables et les d�veloppements techniques exclusifs qui ont contribu� � l'histoire de la montre.

Ce volume comprend �galement un glossaire utile des termes importants, ce qui en fait un indispensable absolu tant pour les experts en montres et les collectionneurs que pour les nouveaux amateurs de la montre artistique.

Brunner alongside almost 1,000 high-quality colour photographs brings together the latest innovations and most important names in top-end timekeeping under one roof. Few objects combine function, elegance, and status as well as a wristwatch. A blend of precise mechanics, craftsmanship, fine materials, and innovation distinguishes the truly superlative examples. With so-called smart watches playing a larger role, the world of watches is in transition. However, classic timepieces with mechanical movement will not disappear from people's wrists, because the ticking of a mechanical watch has been and will continue to be the heartbeat of human culture.

Readers can feast their eyes and minds on a magnificently-illustrated and well-documented chronicle of the world's best timepieces. Portraits of more than 40 watch brands, from premium manufacturers Patek Philippe, Rolex, and Cartier to watches from the "affordable luxury" segment, right up to timepieces from the chronometric creme de la creme.
