In Response To: Re: reference book? ()

: No such animal. The closest is "Omega
: Designs" by Anton Kreuzer, which is an
: expensive coffee table book.

: Has good listings of specs of vintage Omega
: movements. Overall though, the book is a
: somewhat rambling collection of chapters
: that provide a spotty history of Omega
: watches. Really good photos, though almost
: all seem to be Omega publicity shots.

: But there are NO books that show even a
: marginal collection of the watches
: themselves. you will have more luck
: searching good vintage watch dealer sites
: like www.artoftime.com and
: www.gisbert-joseph.com to see lots of photos
: of vintage Omegas.
I have bought from Gisbert and have been very happy. Do you have an opinion on ArtofTime?
How would they compare to Gisbert?
