All in Good Time: Reflections of a Watchmaker

Daniels stands alone in modern times as the inventor of the revolutionary co-axial escapement, the first substantial advance in portable mechanical timekeeping over the lever escapement, which has dominated ever since its invention in 1759. This revised edition of the biography also contains a new section that illustrates and discusses over thirty of the pocket and wrist watches Daniels has made over the years. This book, then, will allow the reader to witness the triumph of intelligence, ingenuity, matchless skill and singularity of purpose over the most unpromising of beginnings.
