Hi All,

I'm new here and i was wondering if any of you could recommend a good book about learning watch movements. It's not that i want to become a watch repair person but i just want to learn more about watches, to understand what the jeweler is telling me or when meeting other watch fans.

Any recommendations are welcome.

Best Regards,
Vectar

On a serious note - there is a subforum dedicated to the topic.

Just got this book "Watch Repairing as a Hobby" by D.W. Fletcher. First chapter is all about how a mechanical watch works.
