Review title: The most basic reference work on American Pocket watches
Product review: I've used Cooksey Shugart's books for nearly a dozen editions now, and this book is the best all-in-one price guide, identification guide and basic watch book around. I use it for American Pocket Watches (because that is what I collect) although I read it cover-to-cover. Prices may be slightly out of date because of the one-year update cycle. In reply to the reader who complained that the prices don't take into account the high values being sought on Ebay and other auctions, I suggest that most of the actual sales results I've seen on American wrist watches on Ebay are in line with the Guide's prices. The asking and reserve prices are inflated, and - most telling - the quality is usually overstated. "Mint" means much less online than it does to the experts writing this book.
