About this product

Product Information

This unique book traces the history of the machine-made watch from 1850 to 1980. As well as considering the mainstream developments in Europe, the USA and the Far East, author Maxwell Cutmore also examines in detail the firms that pioneered new methods of watch construction, including the manufacture of interchangeable parts. Readers will also find dozens of fascinating photographs, plus a variety of helpful references that enable them to pursue their own interests in watch history further. Maxwell Cutmore is a chartered engineer who served in the Royal Navy before taking up a post as a senior lecturer in mechanical engineering. He is an acknowledged expert on watches, with a long-standing interest in horology-the study of measuring time. His previous books, the Watch Collector's Handbook and the Pocket Watch Handbook, have become standard works on the subject, and all his books incorporate his own original research and investigations. Maxwell lives in the United Kingdom.
