I'm not sure I agree with all the author's subjective comments, but that doesn't make the article a poor resource for folks seeking a rough understanding. I think newbies who read the writer's subjective statements may not recognize them as such and may be inclined to blindly accept them and act in accordance with them. A better approach would be to dig a bit deeper to get a more comprehensive picture. Doing so will provide the reader with an understanding of which statements reflect market realities versus which reflect irrevocable or indisputable facts.
All the best. |
I agree, the article gives a good high-level overview - very informative to those new to horology. Just curious - what opinions of the author do you disagree with? I didn't note anything particularly disagreeable or objectionable...
