Worth picking up as a reference

Picked this big magazine up at Barnes & noble for like 40 bucks. Good reference of most watch brands and models with a short blurb on the company history. Prices of the models seems a little off and was surprised that tudor wasn't covered

Does it simply cover current year models and prices?

Thanks for posting this.

Thanks for posting this.
It seems to cover the new models for 13 and popular models. It doesn't show the whole line and doesn't show every configuration available. For instance it doesn't seem to show the complete line from breitling or omega. It does have the majority thou, and covers just about every brand

If the mag is for US market then maybe Tudor missing since they didn't respond to the content request. Most compendium mags like this have editors who go to the various mfr. PR depts. for art and copy.

Data is up to 12 mo. old so thats why pricing is usually "off".
