5 out of 5 stars great book.......2006-04-17

I am very pleased with the book as it covers most of the brands with a realisic price list that you can relate to when buying a watch. the problem arises from the fact that it relates to 2004 watches and it is called 2005,so if you are buying a new watch you will not know the price until it is too late.
I have the 2006 book (2005 watches)now and it is a great reference book to have
