Haven't give it much though yet. At the moment, I'm more than satisfied with what I have, there's nothing else in the market that I find myself being more excited that what I already have. I'm making a point to try to not hoard up too many. However, my wife is keen on the other in-house Portuguese chronograph, so most likely, that slot may be reserved for her (between us, she's the chronograph lover).

Wow, this is great! I instantly recognize the IWC and Longines but ignorant to the other brands!
Horological journalist should be doing a coverage on your precious set of collection!
If I may suggest, it will give us great pleasure if you could start a separate thread in the vintage section to talk more about your collection and how you have come to acquire them over time.
Thank you for sharing!

The 12 brands are: (from top left): Vertex, Timor, Lemania, JLC, (mid left): CYMA, Record, Omega, Longines, (bottom left): Grana, IWC, Eterna and Buren. The Grana is the rarest among the 12. I was not actually actively looking to complete the set, they sort of just came along as time goes by.The collection is one word, wow :o
The obsession started before internet became popular as they were much more affordable then and the OCD got a bit out of hand at one stage, LOL.

More pics please.... :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Add: It looks like you a just came out of a poker game with a whole company of soldiers using these watches as chips and you sapu everything... :laugh: :laugh:

My little obsession with vintage military watches, the so called dirty dozen.

Thanks for sharing your collection with us. Indeed an awesome collection. Very very (VERY) rare to see the complete dozen.

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.

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;

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.

Yes it is actually. Every marker is a 5 minute interval. So time will always be in 5 minute increments.. 9.05, 910, etc. Not very good if you need accuracy

can share more about the iwc ingenieur?
Post by: deriku on July 03, 2015, 12:21:18 PM
Design wise considering that the Ingy competes in the realm of AP RO and Nautilus (all Genta classics) I find it to be a value buy. Bracelet is very comfortable, I also ordered an aftermarket leather strap from Jacob Straps for variety. Only downside is the thickness though it doesn't bother me much as the watch wears quite comfortably.
Compared with the current 40mm Ingy (thinner case with crown guards, movement is Sellita based), I definitely prefer the 3228. But this may change as I have a chance to get the blue dial Laureaus Ingy in the next couple months. If this happens, sadly one will have to go.
Post by: chrisyen on July 06, 2015, 08:17:53 AM
My Ingy is the 3228 which I have read was limited to around 800 units, first launched in 2008. It was a 40mm 'test model' for the 80111 in-house movement, whereas the volume model 3227 came in a 42mm case. Bought mine from a fellow forum member.

oh.. its 3228, its the angle of your photo, i thought its vintage version.
i handle few 3228, mwf store also sold 1. the price is so affordable for this model now.
many of our members hv it.
40mm white dial gold index, its dressy, just not so thin.... but i like it alot.
i had the 42mm 3227, black dial, bit more sporty and muscular, still on of my favourite.
very well modernization of the old ingenieur that designed by G.Genta
my taste - among all G. Genta deigned steel watches that era
RO is the best
Ingenieur second

Yeah seen a few members post their 3228 here. Have not seen the 3227 in person but I guess the 42mm case strikes a better balance with the thickness.

The 12 brands are: (from top left): Vertex, Timor, Lemania, JLC, (mid left): CYMA, Record, Omega, Longines, (bottom left): Grana, IWC, Eterna and Buren. The Grana is the rarest among the 12. I was not actually actively looking to complete the set, they sort of just came along as time goes by.
The obsession started before internet became popular as they were much more affordable then and the OCD got a bit out of hand at one stage, LOL.
