It's time to honour them as they should be honoured." - Denis Flageollet Watchmakers: The Masters of Art Horology gathers the work of the most celebrated independent watchmakers in the world. Thirteen artisans, each a legend in the realm of haute horlogerie , tell their stories, describing the traditional working methods and prized watches upon which their reputations have been built. Photographs of the masters in their workshops bring their stories to life, along with detailed sketches and images of their watches in all their brilliant intricacy. Watchmakers also features insightful text from other leading figures of the independent watchmaking world, including Aurel Bacs of the Fondation Haute Horlogerie and Nicholas Foulkes, writer for Vanity Fair, The Telegraph and GQ , and author of the only authorised biography of Patek Philippe. Watchmakers: Hajime Asaoka, Ludovic Ballouard, Christophe Claret, George Daniels, Denis Flageollet (De Bethune), Philippe Dufour, Laurent Ferrier, Romain Gauthier, Vianney Halter, Christian Klings, Jean Daniel Nicolas (Daniel Roth), Roger Smith, Kari Voutilainen Review: Beautiful book - This is a wonderfully produced book about the world's pre-eminent, independent, master watchmakers. Superb macro pictures of their amazing creations and an insight into their thought processes and creative inspiration. Anyone looking for detailed specifications and engineering/production methods will be disappointed. This is an art book which showcases their brilliance. I only wish I'd seen the exhibition to which this book served as a guide. It's a glossy production you can dip in and out of and to drool over the time pieces most of us will never be able to afford. Highly recommended to those who wish to gaze upon high horology but not to those looking for specific information about how they are manufactured. Review: It is a real watch book - This book is the catalog for a traveling exhibit of independent maker watches which are for sale. This book covers each maker and shows examples of their work. The watches are well photographed with most of the photos of the watches as oppsoed to artsy sunrises some pseudo watch books have used to fill space. If intermediate priced ( like a medium range sports car) independent maker watches are of interest this is very good book and for what it is is reasonable well priced. ## Features - Item Trademark: ACC ART BOOKS - manufacturer: ACC Art Books - Item Weight: pounds, pounds, 4.14, 4.14 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #192,206 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #252 in Chemical Engineering #290 in Materials & Material Science #456 in Industrial, Manufacturing & Operational Systems | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 44 Reviews | ## Images ![ACC Art Books Watchmakers: The Masters of Horology - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71XEDbqx2BL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful book *by D***E on 14 June 2020* This is a wonderfully produced book about the world's pre-eminent, independent, master watchmakers.
