Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Horology' is a comprehensive and authoritative guide to the intricate science of time measurement and the technical construction of precision timepieces. Written by J. Eric Haswell, a Fellow of the British Horological Institute, this work delves into the fundamental principles and mechanical complexities of clocks, watches, and chronometers.The book offers a detailed exploration of the evolution and mechanics of horological instruments. It covers everything from the basic principles of timekeeping to the sophisticated escapements and movements found in high-grade chronometers. Readers will find in-depth discussions on pendulums, balance wheels, and the various gear trains that drive these essential devices.Enhanced with descriptive plates, this volume serves as both a practical manual for craftsmen and a valuable historical resource for collectors and enthusiasts of mechanical engineering. It meticulously documents the technical advancements of the early 20th century, providing a window into the precision required to master the measurement of time. Whether interested in the restoration of antique pieces or the physics of oscillation, readers will find 'Horology' to be an indispensable reference on the craft and theory of timekeeping.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Condition: Very Good. A lovely " Collectors Copy" of the 1937 printing in a scarce but rather crudely restored dustwrapper. A seminal masterwork written by a distinguished Fellow of the British Horological Institute. First published in 1928 this legendary text is a cornerstone of classical watchmaking, precision engineering, and mechanical clock restoration. A dense, unapologetically technical blueprint for calculating and constructing high-grade mechanical timekeepers. Haswell masterfully balances mathematics with workshop practicalities.Topics include Astronomical time measurement and the core physics of tracking seconds: Exhaustive blueprints on pendulum designs, gravity escapements, and train wheel calculations.Watch Engineering: Technical breakdowns of balance wheels, mainspring power delivery, and micro-gear trains.Marine Chronometers: Precision tech dedicated to seafaring navigation and temperature-compensated balances.Detailed Plates and intricate fold-out technical drawings and diagrams visualizing exact component layouts. the "Supplement" in this edition refers to a highly technical update appended to the back of the book written by Haswell to bridge the gap between classical 1920s mechanical horology and the major technical breakthroughs of the 1930s.
