Great resource
It appears to have been written and edited by someone who has been working on clocks for years, so I think you get a first hand account of his experience. The pictures could be more professional but again I think they are authentic and are a very good representation of what was done and what you need to do.

Best first book for clock repair
I enjoy reading this book and applying its directions. Easy to use and understand. Apart from from some minor, and amusing, typographical and typesetting errors, it is highly recommended.

Book is well written! Many illustrations to go along with the text.

Somewhat helpful
I purchased the book for the repair of a cuckoo clock.Never having taken on clock repair, I thought it would lead me through the process of disassembly , repair and reassembly.Several key areas need refined. The movement of the Regula was shown in an exploded view with each part having a name. The author of the book then used different nomenclature for the disassembly and pointed out the important alignment of parts prior to removing the case halves of the clock. Well, that was a waste of time. Even referencing the photos which were not indexed to the text of the book left me confused. It appeared that the book was a mixture of photos and text from several references and slapped together as some sort of reference for the reader to decode. I didn't get the decoder ring with the book.My most helpful reference ended up being Youtube which gave me real information.There is some helpful information but I should have purchased a book specific to Cuckoo clocks.

Great book to learn from
Found this to be a really good book for me as a beginner, yes some of the photos and statements are out of sync but overall it is a detailed and useful book to have on my workbench. 2 clocks repaired and working since I purchased this.

Good informative book
Only dropped a star because some of the photos are not of the best quality. But apart from that a very good book.
