The definitive book for collectors of mechanical wristwatches, with complete information on more than 1,100 current models made by over 90 manufacturers worldwide. 
Every year hundreds of new wristwatches are introduced.

The specifications for each watch include price, movement, special features, complications, casings, dial, band, and available variations of a particular model. In addition, general histories of each manufacturer provide an overview of the company's background and style. Wristwatch Annual also showcases the Wristwatch of the Year, an honor bestowed by popular vote on the watch that best combines mechanical and aesthetic value. 
The annual's elegant photography and organization will encourage readers to peruse the year's offerings watch by watch. And the range of styles, from classic to modern, will appeal to watch enthusiasts the world over, who will find this current edition both a handy reference and required reading.
