1 comments about Wristwatches.
- The book starts showing briefly how the different type of movements work and ends with a photo album of different wristwatches divided in sections (automatic, manual winding, sports, chrono, repeaters, electronic, etc) showing brand names as Omega, Jaegger Le Coultre, Zenith, Rolex, Movado, Girard Perregaux and other big names. Photographs are in B/W mainly, but the few that show the timepieces that open some of the chapters are colour. The comment on each timepiece includes an estimated price, although this information varies through time it can be useful as a reference for the beginner. There is a chapter dedicated to the SWATCH phenomenon, including descriptions and photographs of some timepieces. The book includes very useful tips on how to start collecting, store and keep timepieces; being an excelent introduction at a good price, recomended for who likes wristwatches and might become a collector

1 comments about Fun Jewelry.
- The layout of this book is good because it groups jewelry by themes. So if you have a "fish" pin to look up you can look at all the undersea creature pictures. This book is full of pictures pleasantly "crowded" with lots of jewelry. This is a great book for all levels of jewelry lovers and collectors!

3 comments about Rubies & Sapphires (Fred Ward Gem Book Series).
- Great book by a knowledgeable and easy to understand author. The anecdotal recounts will help to keep everyone's interest, regardless of background.
- Fred Ward is the author of the classic series on gems published in National Geographic magazine and this book displays similar quality. Meticulously researched, wonderfully photographed, it is a marvelous introduction to the subject.
- Fred Ward has a clear and concise writing style. This book is comprehensive, despite it's slender size. It is stunningly illustrated, with fabulous photos of well-known, and ordinary, gemstones and objets d'art. A must for the fan of jewels and gemstones. I'm collecting all his books now.
