THE GREAT DICTIONARY OF HOROLOGY: Terms, techniques, movements, calibres, complications, materials and watch collecting from A to Z - Softcover
Synopsis
What does a term you come across in a specification sheet, catalogue, manual or conversation with a collector really mean?
The Great Dictionary of Horology was created to answer that question.
A comprehensive reference work devoted to the language of watches and watchmaking, featuring more than 2,500 entries, variants and cross-references covering mechanical and quartz watchmaking, electronics, complications, materials, finishing techniques, cases, dials, chronographs, certifications, watch collecting, and historic and contemporary calibres.
From essential terminology to specialised expressions that are often used without explanation, every entry provides a clear definition and, where appropriate, a more detailed technical or historical note identified by the ◆ symbol.
The main English and French equivalents are also included, making it easier to recognise the terminology used in international catalogues, technical documentation and the world of watch collecting.
The dictionary covers traditional mechanical watchmaking, hand-wound and automatic movements, quartz and tuning-fork watches, grand complications, manufacturing and finishing techniques, materials, components, and a selection of landmark calibres that have become reference points in the history of horology.
A dictionary to consult whenever you need it — and to browse whenever you want to discover just how rich the language of time can be.
