extremely well done 27. Januar 2011
Von photoguy - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch
I tinkered a bit with modding Seiko watches and found that I really enjoyed it. I wanted to take it to the next level and stumbled onto the e-book version of Beginner Watchmaking while searching for tutorials and instruction. I figured that if I was going to start tinkering with watches I needed to know what I was doing. I purchased my copy from that popular auction site and although there were previews it was difficult for me to tell if the book would be useful or not. So basically I took a leap of faith and bought it. (I noticed the amazon previews are much easier to see)

I had hoped to learn about how to disassemble watches and rebuild with custom parts. I'm happy to say that all of this information is in there in much greater detail than I could have possibly hoped for. This alone was worth the cost of admission. But what inspired me to write a review was all of the "bonus" stuff I hadn't bargained for. The author does a fantastic job of explaining the inner workings of the watch, the various parts, how they all work together etc. It's so much more than just a DIY book. I feel confident that I have a solid base of understanding to build on.

When you consider the subject matter it could certainly make for a boring or overly technical book. Not so in this case. The information is presented in a style I particularly enjoy; lots and lots of clear, well-done photos with a perfect ratio of text. It's an enjoyable read and after getting through the entire book one time I felt that I had grasped most of it. At two-hundred, eighty-something pages there's a lot of info in there. It's all good solid stuff with no filler.

So my leap of faith paid off. I feel that I got more than my money's worth and it doesn't get much better than that.

Just got the book, but am impressed! 4. März 2011
Von Michael A. Duvernois - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This is the perfect sort of book for CreateSpace or the like. It's one person's hobby/interest which a regular publisher would have a hard time justifying turning into a book, but which is a great resource for other people. I just got it, and am very impressed with the book. Good close-up photos (do note that the images on the amazon listing make the pages look to be in color, they are in black & white, don't be disappointed!), websites to check out, and useful text explanations. The step by step instructions look easy to follow. Very nice!

Good Place to Start 14. Februar 2011
Von T. Wright - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This book is definitely a good place to start in the hobby of watchmaking. It is apparent, though, that when it was published budget was a huge part. You can tell that the book was also written by a watchmaker and not an author, so it is in plain, uncomplicated language. Even though this book is not the highest quality book, it does contain a lot of useful information and is a great place to start. The author gives you planting of websites to buy parts off of and to look at for even more info.

If your watch is averaging +6 to -4 seconds per day, then it is extremely accurate, and it is similar to a chronometer watch in one position. &quote;
