Book Watches: A Guide by Hodinkee
Description
Over a short period of ten years, Hodinkee has positioned itself as the preeminent and most distinguished destination for modern and vintage wristwatch enthusiasts.
Coming out of a career in finance, Ben Clymer decided to merge his passions of watchmaking and writing to create a blog covering everything from new products to vintage wristwatch auctions. Titling his effort after the Czech word hodinky, meaning “little watch,” Clymer sought to create a platform that was casual and accessible to all levels of enthusiasts—within a few years, the New York Times dubbed it the “Great Priest of Watchmaking.
What started as a humble blog quickly grew into a full-fledged magazine and electronic communications hub for some of the world's biggest watch brands. Celebrating the milestone decade since Hodinkee's founding, this book timely captures the expertise of the world's leading experts. With chapters describing chronographs, dive watches, high-end design, and horological icons, this book is a connoisseur's compendium for watchmaking veterans and novices alike.
