A Special Anniversary Edition

Celebrating 40 years of teNeues illustrated books, this special edition of The Watch Book series returns in a sleek, contemporary softcover format. Created in collaboration with renowned watch historian Gisbert L. Brunner, it combines horological expertise with striking imagery to explore the enduring appeal of mechanical watchmaking.

Gisbert L. Brunner, born in 1947, has been involved with precision timepieces of all kinds since the 1960s, primarily wristwatches. During the quartz watch crisis in the 1970s, his love for the seemingly dying mechanical timepieces increased even more. His passion for collecting led to his first articles in the early 1980s. In the meantime, Brunner has published more than 15 books on the subject. He is in demand worldwide as a lecturer.
