    About this ebook

    Treasures in Time ll

    Newly Revised and Expanded

    Profit from Vintage Quartz and Electric Watches”.

    A follow up to the successful E book 'Treasures in Time', this is a new, concise, informative guide about special vintage watches which have been ignored.

    Timepieces like Hamilton “Ventura”, the Bulova "Accutron" and the Omega "Megaquartz" were born in the spirit of inventiveness and unprecedented competition. The results were exceptional watches using outrageous technology and exhibiting an illustrious history.

    Some say this transitional period for watches mirrored the transition of black and white TV to color.

    After completing the first guide on mechanical watches: "Treasures in Time", curiosity led me back to this very unique era. An era in which for those collecting vintage watches have forgotten!

    This led to an incredible journey.

    Discoveries that should get you the entrepreneur/collector excited about collecting and making money with these unique vintage timepieces.

    Whether you are a pro, a beginner or looking to buy a memorable gift… this guide will help you get ideas, avoid mistakes and save you time and money.

    Learn how to identify and grade these unique timepieces.

    Discover who the key quartz and electric players were and which models they made. Most importantly… which models to collect?

    In the electric watch section, you will find the main models of this era. Learn about the auxiliary makers of these special watches.
    Sprinkled throughout are select photos with over 30 brands identified for your ‘collecting radar screen’.

    Discover who the “Second Watch Company” was?

    Included is a useful collector’s glossary and two bonus chapters.

    There are two bonus chapters. The first is about “Military Quartz Watches”. What makes them the hottest quartz collectible? What's different about them?

    The additional bonus chapter is how to set up your own watch business.
    Become a watch entrepreneur/collector. Learn the basic steps to develop a home business in the exciting field of watch collecting; a great activity to generate extra income and pleasure.

    Inside the vintage watch market is defined with a complete marketing strategy and description of how and who to sell to in places like EBay and other sites.

    A complete resource section and online references are included.

    Out of this era came some extraordinary technology and designs. It was actually an exciting transitional period… one in which we will never see again.

    A welcomed testimonial:
    "Your e-book - I am floored. It is awesome. You organized the topics in a concise clear way. Useful for both the uninitiated and experienced watch collector. I will recommend this to all my clients”.
