The most awaited watch book of 1926 is presently available at physical and online bookshops. Here are an excerpt from the introduction, and the volume’s specs

decades from 1961 to 2000 opens with a chronology of significant events and a
table of movements developed during the period. This is followed by a gallery
of timepieces, accompanied by photographs, texts illustrating their genesis,
and technical data sheets. A wide selection of annotated advertisements allows
