A well-made men's wristwatch combines inspired design, technical innovation, and precise craftsmanship. It helps to define a man's personal style, and it can be an essential tool for many pursuits. It might be a talisman or an heirloom. It can be a lifelong companion, or part of a collection that brings its own deep rewards. If it has a history, it can evoke the era in which it was made; if it's new, it may speak to today's cutting-edge technology. It may incorporate gold and porcelain or carbon composite and titanium. The Watch celebrates the craftsmanship of watchmaking for the watch collector. It features more than 600 vintage and contemporary watches from 50 leading brands that have made significant contributions to the history and craft of fine watchmaking.
