Instant Expert: Collecting Watches is a smart book that teaches you to learn to think, talk, buy and sell like an expert. However the book is primarily written for collectors of pocket watches and provides just cursory information regarding wristwatches.
Though well written it is primarily about watches produced in the USA, and pocket watches at that. There are a lot of illustrations, and descriptions of most of the principles of the art of watchmaking.
However it does appear that the book is more or less a repeat of the introduction to the Complete Price Guide to Watches, by the same author. The latter book is much more informative on watch pricing and contains all the information in this one. But this one additionally teaches you what to collect, how to recognize a fake and how to evaluate the price of a watch.
