Since the beginning of the 20th century, scientific developments have made it possible to manufacture watches that are not only increasingly reliable, but also in tune with changing customs, social needs and aesthetic canons.

This book examines the art of watchmaking and 60 famous models, covering both their technical evolution and stylistic trends. In each chapter, studies are made of the history of the most important manufacturers, the personalities associated with the models treated, and the achievements of the wristwatches. From the watch that helped Charles Lindbergh on the first solo transatlantic flight to the one worn by Sir Edmund Hillary on the summit of Mount Everest, the most emblematic models are discussed in detail.
