The Theory of Horology
by Charles-Andre Reymondin, Georges Monnier, Didier Jeanneret, Umberto Pelaratti
Description
A comprehensive guide to the principles and practice of mechanical watchmaking, this volume explores the science behind time measurement and the intricate mechanisms that make watches function. It examines the construction, operation, and interaction of essential components, from gear trains and escapements to oscillators and regulating systems, while introducing the calculations and technical concepts essential to horology. Clear, systematic, and richly detailed, it serves as a valuable reference for students, watchmakers, designers, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the precision, craftsmanship, and engineering that define fine mechanical timepieces.
