Vintage Watches: The Modern Guide

By Eric Wind & Charlie Dunne

A modern guide to the fascinating world of vintage watches, written by two of the industry’s leading experts.

Vintage Watches: The Modern Guide explores the watches, stories, and obsessive culture that have shaped today’s collecting world. Across 320 beautifully bound pages and more than 250 photographs, Eric Wind and Charlie Dunne take readers through some of the most important names in watchmaking, from iconic Rolex sports models and complicated Patek Philippe timepieces to OMEGA Speedmasters, Audemars Piguet, and beyond.

But this is more than a book about watches.

Inside, you’ll find essays from notable collectors and experts, a closer look at the beauty of patina, practical dos and don’ts for buying vintage, and stories that help explain why collectors become so attached to these tiny mechanical objects in the first place.

Whether you’re buying your first vintage watch or have been collecting for years, this is the kind of book you’ll want to keep on the coffee table and come back to again and again.

Care & Maintenance

To keep your watch performing at its best, we recommend avoiding strong impacts, extreme temperatures, and prolonged exposure to moisture unless your watch is designed for water activities. After exposure to salt water, rinse the watch gently with fresh water and dry with a soft cloth.

For mechanical watches, regular wear helps keep the movement running smoothly. If the watch is not worn often, manual winding may be needed depending on the model. Quartz watches may require battery replacement over time.

Leather straps should be kept away from excessive water and humidity to preserve their appearance and longevity.

Because care recommendations can vary by brand and model, please refer to the manufacturer manual included with your watch for detailed operating instructions, water resistance guidelines, and service intervals.
