Picked it up yesterday. Have every issue since 2001 or 2002 (I forget).

For the newbies, this annually-published paperback contains a good sampling of pictures, stats & retail watch prices from almost every commercial watch brand, as well as industry news & general watch info.

Get a copy.

Narikaa, thanks for the heads up. I have been tracking the book and it's available AGAIN on Amazon!

Not only did I get:

Wristwatch Annual 2008: The Catalog of Producers, Models, and Specifications (Wristwatch Annual) (Paperback)

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0789209314

But this too:

Watches International: Volume VII (Watches International) (Paperback)

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0847828808

Will check this out from my local library, for those of you who are fascinated by the Hello Kitty Women:

The Cult of the Luxury Brand: Inside Asia's Love Affair With Luxury (Hardcover)

http://www.amazon.com/Cult-Luxury-Brand-In...880&sr=1-28

"Well researched and highly readable, this book goes well beyond merely documenting the luxe phenomenon in Asia. It explains how cultural concepts such as guanxi, conformity and kiasu are given their spiritual edge today through the way luxury brands are used as personal props. It is a fascinating read, and adds texture and flabour to understanding how the Asian century is taking shape.

Mark Blair, author of 360 Brand in Asia and President - International Clients, Ogilvy & Mather Asia Pacific"

(Fascinating, but heh, the Asian century)

@Lord Rasta: That was a really nice gesture. Bless your heart.
