A Man and His Watch (Short Review)

Hi all,

I had written a short review of the book 'A Man and His Watch' a while back (link below) and wondered who else has it, what you gleaned from it, and what other watch books you have that you would recommend.

I have this book. If it's the book with the Maitre D who was gifted his Timex by Bill Murray?

It's a brilliant book, every watch has such a unique story to all manner of people across the world. My daughter bought me it as a Christmas present a couple of years ago & it's far & away the best present I've received in years. If you don't have it, buy it.

It is fantastic. For any enthusiasts who are also into cars, Matt Hranek also published 'A Man and His Car'!

It’s not specifically about watches but a wonderful essay on time measurement

I’m may get sheet for this, but I wasn’t a fan of the book. Stopped reading halfway into it.

Same. I didn't get very far into it before I knew it wasn't for me.

Don't click here. Nothing good will come of it.

I’m the same, I flicked through it and maybe I landed on the wrong stories but it seemed more about the men than the watches.
