He was a watchmaker who built complete watches by hand (including the case and dial). But it was his creation of the coaxial escapement for which he is most remembered. The movement, which theoretically removed the need to add a lubricant, has been used by Omega in most of their collections since 1999. --Wikipedia

His published works include Watches (1965), English and American Watches (1966), The Art of Breguet (1974), Clocks & Watches in the Collection of the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers (1975), The Practical Watch Escapement (1977), Watchmaking (2011), and All in Good Time: Reflections of a Watchmaker (2000).
