Antique Medieval Chess Woodcut Watch
"One of the most famous and iconic books on chess is really not about chess at all. Jacobus de Cessolis, (Jacopo da Cessole, c. 1250 – c. 1322) the author of The Game and Playe of the Chesse, found its way into print in the very highly capable hands of William Caxton in 1474 and into a second edition in (about) 1483. Caxton produced a spectacular, beautiful work on moral and ethical virtue and challenge, using the game of chess as the foundation for metaphor and alliteration of the wide classical literature that it calls upon. The book doesn't tell you how to play--but it does instruct on how to live. A great aid to the book's power are the sixteen strong woodcuts ("repeated to make twenty-four figures""

Having ordered a number of custom order products from other suppliers I can say categorically the quality and customer service from Zazzle is top notch vs. the others (and negative experiences with these others). I was quite overjoyed with the results of my first order from Zazzle (and the entire process and customer service when encountered a supply issue). Full marks and have ordered multiple items before doing this specific review. I applaud the customer service in particular as being fast, responsive and fair. Couldn't ask for more! The design of this particular buy is quite individual to my needs as a promo item. It is very subtle and came out exactly as I expected. Essentially names a presentation series on the watch which is about AI and tech. The design, and allowing for lines of actual text within the code, was perfect for my needs.Well thought out by the creator. I added a colour match watch band but the original band was of good quality and used it on another watch.
