Description

A finely illustrated survey of modern dress watches that presents how this genre has evolved, aimed at discerning readers who love fine mechanical formal timepieces.

In the world of horology, many trends are transient, but dress-style watches have always appealed to a broad demographic and never seems to go out of style. Movie idols of the silver screen, for example, wore elegant timepieces that perfectly complement modern ultra-fitted tailoring today. 

Timeless Classics features numerous modern interpretations from this watch genre that illustrate exceptional design merit. Written by a well-known style and design author and blogger, this book illustrates how dress watches have evolved, and includes selections from the large and well-known watch brands like LVMH, Richemont, Swatch, and more, as well as several smaller microbrands and world exclusives. Trends in watch materials, from the more traditional gold, steel, and silver, to the more contemporary choices of bronze, carbon, and even sapphire crystal are showcased. Professionally stylized photography accentuates the best features of each timepiece.

Timeless Classics is a must have book for appreciators of fine horology, and for the shelves and coffee tables of any watch collecetor or enthusiast.
