The automatic mechanism was a major advance in the history of the wristwatch. The successful design became the hallmark of the skilled Swiss watchmaker as the technology developed in the years from 1926 to 1978. 200 watches are discussed representing all the Swiss manufacturers. Each is illustrated with three photos to show the dial, and the complete and partly disassembled movement. Information on their mechanism and construction is offered along with data needed to locate the watches chronologically and a current price guide.
