purchased as Xmas gift really smart looking book great quality. Purchased for a watch nut so think he will have many happy hours reading. Only thing I would recommend is you have better packaging for delivery as edge of sleeve a bit damaged.

As a picture book it works but why oh why is the text so ridiculously small..?..!!.
It’s a real shame considering the books large
dimensions and the obvious scope to have increased the font size.

I ordered one copy, and inside the pages had been damaged. The replacement was only slightly better with again damage to a couple of pages. I gave up in the end. I may try again at some point when I feel like the supplier may have changed. Sorry couldn’t be more positive however if book and case were undamaged it would be a lovely book to own.

Amazing quality book

The book itself is gorgeous. No two ways about it. Watches and story telling go together perfectly and this is a beautiful example of how to visualise that in print.
My copy however arrived so tightly in the cardboard sleeve that it took an entire afternoon of careful wiggling to get it out only to discover a (all be it small) mark on the back of the book. It is now too late 17th to change for another before Christmas …. great shame.
