2015-10-12 04:48:24 +0000 UTCHey Brendan, I have built up a great little clock reference library. Top of the list is George Daniels' "Watchmaking", followed by J Malcolm Wilds' "Wheel and Pinion Cutting in Horology". I also have a number of the older classic books by WJ Gazely and Donald De Carle. They all have something to add to the picture, but "Watchmaking" really stands out as a classic reference on just about every technique and issue.
