Retro Watches is a popular, accessible collector's guide for those
who want to make a statement with the watch they wear, but who want
to choose a timepiece that is very different from the 'classic' and
very mainstream watches by the major Swiss brands. This
trendsetting audience of metropolitan millennials are looking to
stand out and make a mark through the watch they wear - with
accurate time being provided by a smartphone, the watch they wear
can be more than just purely functional. Not interested in the
ostentatiously high priced, 'blingy', nor even the obvious choices
of 'iconic' design pieces, this audience are looking for those
individualist pieces that very few have seen - and even fewer own.
Tapping into this new collecting trend, Retro Watches brings
together the most intriguing, visually striking and 'out-there'
watch designs from little-known but influential watch brands, along
with overlooked but brilliant pieces from the major players. One
hundred watch models are featured, specially photographed for the
project and accompanied by accessible, informative texts discussing
the watch's design, intriguing features rarity and value.
Additional break-out spreads dive into the cultural and fashion
history of watch design and the many innovations from the 60s, 70s
and 80s. Perfectly packaged and accessibly presented, this is the
popular collector's guide for the watch fan who wants to stand out
from the crowd.
