Welcome to webWatchWorld.com, one person's take on the wonderful world of watch collecting and enjoyment! This website provides information about wrist watches and other horological curiosities along with tips on watch repair, maintenance and more.
The goal of webWatchWorld.com is to provide useful information to watch collectors of all types in a clear and easy-to-understand style. The focus is on watches that offer excellent value for the money -- which does not necessarily mean they will be inexpensive. I like all types of watches but concentrate mostly on mechanical watches that are either manual or automatic winding, but any watch is an interesting watch in my opinion!

interesting and very inexpensive wristwatch that has a few problems,
