Thank you all for showing interests in my little collection. One bonus about collecting military watches is the occasional opportunity to buy them in bulk from surplus warehouses for little money and the feeling is as good as the winning chips in pocket games! For an aspiring hobbyist watchmaker, this also presents god sent opportunity to practice the skill.These w.w.w watches were not exactly rare, except for Grana, ten of thousands were delivered at the end of 1945, so all did not see the actions of the war. Picture below is an extract from Knirim's book showing the estimated/archived production figures of each brand. And for this reason, Grana is currently the most sought after and commands the highest price. (Knirim book British Military Timepieces)This one from Cyma has the inspector date stamped on the back of the dial.Some of them were latter re-assigned with NATO dials, including IWC, Omega, Record and Timor and my favourite is this one;
My little obsession with vintage military watches, the so called dirty dozen.
