MY FAVORITE WATCHMAKING BOOKS

[david pierce]

Chris!, Chris!, Chris!
I will certainly put that book on my wish list. It just occurred to me that Switzerland is not that far from you. I just took a look at my globe and it looks like you could drive there in about a day; just a thought.

Bob,
The BULOVA SCHOOL OF WATCHMAKING book is available in a brand new hardbound format. I think it only costs about $50.00.

A while back you put up a list of recommended readings but for the life of me, I can’t find it using the search feature.

Hi Tom,
I’ll have to search around a bit. I don’t remember putting a list up but that doesn’t mean that I didn’t If I can locate it I’ll post the link up here.

Where can we purchase your book?

Thanks for asking Tom,
It’s not in print at this time but considering having a batch printed up. Will keep you posted.
Also for those interested,
I’ve received quite a few requests for the DVDs from members so will be making the DVDs available for a short time to all course and forum members. They will most likely be discounted 50% or so off of the previous retail price when I used to sell them a few years back. I’ll either send out emails to members or will post it up here when they are available (or will do both).

Thanks David,
I’m sure he would return it if I begged enough! That book is something he occasionally refers to so it is doing him some good. He actually has a few of my books and is keeping them safe for me? At least that’s the excuse he gives me when they come up in conversation.

Bob:
Here’s a thread where I was looking for some of the books in your list; however, your list appears to have been in another thread that I’ve yet to find. Perhaps if you look at this, it might help. As I remember it was a pretty extensive list, but my memory is pretty bad as of late.

Thanks Tom,
Haven’t found it yet but will try going through that thread to see if it jogs my memory at all.
Taking a quick look at it though I do recall that video that I had made for a member where I showed different resources for complications as well as places online to find movement cal drawings and tech. information. I remember rambling on for a few minutes before actually showing video of books and online resources but pretty sure there were some good recommendations in the video. Maybe worth viewing for those that never saw it.
Here’s the link http://www.screencast.com/t/qBp6L8df9
I’ll check to see if that list is up here Tom. Possible though that I never completed it.

Bob:

Now I remember…. yes it was an external link which explains why a forum search turned up nothing.

I was beginning to doubt my sanity.

Thanks!!!
Tom
