In his most recent link piece he charts the link rise and fall of various case-shape trends throughout the last century. He lands on the conclusion that cases for most of the modern history of the wristwatch have been round. But there's one exception The '70s. He mines data from link Chrono24 and manually adds and classifies design features to the data set. Ultimately he seeks to answer a much larger question using data points How has the watch world evolved over time

Abbott's invention essentially transforms a key-wound watch into a stem-wound watch that you could wind with just your fingers. This advertisement came out around the time when watches transitioned link from key-winding to crown winding hence link the "great reduction" in the price link of key-winding movements above. So the problem Abbott's attachment solves would not be a common one for much longer.
