Best Patek reference books?
Hey guys - I've got a ton of watch books and guides for Rolex and other brands.
I was wondering if there are any recommendations for a good Patek book that has early vintage references and details as well as more recent models. I know John Reardon has "Patek Philippe In America". Anyone have this? Open to other suggestions. Thanks |

I found the following list of books recommended by John Reardon to be quite helpful:

Another book that we can look forward to is Nick Foulkes' new book "Patek Philippe - the authorized biography" to be released later this year. It will be sold on patek.com for CHF220 + CHF20 postage as well at other online bookstores like Amazon

I don't have it, but Mondani's 3 volume book on modern, vintage and nautilus looks like the ultimate reference. However I think it's about 6 years old, so I wouldn't buy until there is an updated edition.
