Each description includes a guide to current price ranges; and the book includes an illustrated guide to some 160 identification markings to be found on the military timepieces of the above nations, plus Spain, Sweden, Austro-Hungary, Poland, China, Chile and Peru.
This book will be an invaluable reference for horologists at every level of expertise; and will prove particularly useful to collectors of average means, whose imaginations are captured by their dramatic historical associations.
