Description from the seller

I offer you this essential work, in English, and which must absolutely join your timepieces!

Pages that make you dream, to guide your hunt for certain rare and prestigious timepieces, or just to relax...

"I leafed through piles of books on the history of watches... But none touched me as much as *A Man and His Watch*. This book is full of moving stories." – T: The New York Times Style Magazine

"There are many beautifully illustrated books about watches, but *A Man & His Watch* by Matt Hranek goes far beyond. It reveals the deeply personal nature of watches." – Gear Patrol, coffee-table books our team can’t live without.

Paul Newman wore his Rolex Daytona every day for 35 years, until his death in 2008. This iconic timepiece, undoubtedly one of the most coveted watches in the world, now belongs to his daughter Clea, who wears it daily in his memory. Franklin Roosevelt wore an elegant gold Tiffany watch, a gift from a friend for his birthday, at the famous Yalta Conference where he shook hands with Joseph Stalin and Winston Churchill. The Omega worn by JFK at his presidential inauguration, the Ralph Lauren watch acquired from Andy Warhol's personal collection, Sir Edmund Hillary’s Rolex worn during the first ascent of Everest… These watches, among many others, form the stories of the most coveted watches in the world, told in "A Man and His Watch"
