Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New and Complete Clock and Watchmakers' Manual: Comprising Descriptions of the Various Gearings, Escapements, and Compensations Now in Use in French, Swiss, and English Clocks and Watches, Patents, Tools, Etc; With Directions for Cleaning and Repairing; With Numerous Engravings, Compiled From the Frenc Our plan more particularly embraces a description of the workmanship executed in Paris, which is justly thought to excel that of the Swiss manufacturers. We shall enter into the details necessary to the exact description of all the manipulations employed by the most celebrated watch makers, show the improvements which have been introduced in the manufacture of watches, mantel and belfry clocks, and chronometers, and describe the various tools which have recently been invented both for abrid gin g the mani pulations and rendering them more exact. We shall give valuable instructions in respect to repairing and regulating clocks and watches, and keeping them in order when they are thus regulated. These are very important, for excellent watches are often spoiled by inexperienced workmen to whom they are entrusted for repairs, or greatly injured by a want of care or knowledge on the part of their owners. We have endeavored to remedy this, by giving full and minute directions as to the care and management of time pieces, which cannot fail to be valuable to all who own them. We have also described the various escapements now in use, together with the most important gearings, and several useful tools which have lately been invented. The Manual is divided into chapters, in which we shall treat successively: first, of the manufacture of watches; second, of apartment clocks; and third, of belfry clocks; and in these we shall avoid describing any workmanship which is not approved by the best artisans.

Download or read book Wristwatch Handbook The written by R. Schmidt and published by Antique Collector's Club. This book was released on 2016-10-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The Wristwatch Handbook' provides the reader with a comprehensive anatomy of the mechanical wristwatch; every conceivable function and form. It is the foundational text for the novice and the reference book for the seasoned enthusiast. Where other books about watches focus on advising the collector, on a single brand, or on a timeline of key historical figures and events, 'The Wristwatch Handbook' takes a detailed look at mechanical wristwatch complications (functions) and leaves no stone unturned. The reader will gain the ability to identify a complicated watch from twenty paces and perform a top-to-bottom assessment of even the most exotic timepiece in a matter of seconds. Despite the functional obsolescence of the mechanical wristwatch (our phones, computers, even microwaves tell more accurate time), there are more varieties of mechanical watches available than ever before. Today, innovation is no longer exclusively preoccupied with accuracy; pioneer manufacturers are also exploring friction reduction, anti-magnetism, scratch resistance, dial decoration, exotic materials and so on.
