Waltham Wristwatches A Collectors Guide Bruce Shawkey

Waltham Wristwatches A Collectors Guide contains more than 650 images of Waltham watches from years 1912 - 1955. most identified with model number, some by model name, and suggested retail price when the watch was introduced. Twelve years in the making, it's the first identification book devoted exclusively to Waltham wristwatches. A large part of this work is based on the company and jobber catalogs that Waltham produced for the trade from 1926 to 1955. The remainder are models shown from various advertisements and actual specimens from auctions and private collections. This resulting guide is far from complete, but at least is a good start and will help Waltham collectors identify their treasures..
