mrYong,

Exciting? not really. most exciting was changing jobs, from accountancy to engineering.

TheHobbit , now this is exciting.. I ,myself, am Industrial Engineer.

Please share with us how an accountant evolve into an engineer.

mrYong,

Hahahaha nothing much to say really. Realised after 2 1/2 years that numbers are not my thing. So decided to do Aircraft engineering instead. Did that for 16 years. Continued my studies after that and did business development, marketing and sales for 2 years. Help to bring in a number of high tech engineering into the country and retired 2 years ago. Looking to continue my studies and perhaps move into academia. Need money to fund a sickness called watch collecting. So you are an Industrial Engineer? Cool.

Hi terrenceterrence,

Thanks. Tomorrow it will be this one, the Hamilton GG-W-113.

look same same to me

The watches looks the same because they were based on similar specs as required by the US military. The Benrus DTU 2-A/P is based on the MIL-W-3818B spec from the 1960s.

The U.S.A.F. GG-W-113 Pilots Watch is based on the MIL-W-46374 spec which in turn is based on the MIL-W-3818 spec.

All the watches were issued to the US Military. The Benrus was issued in March 1969 while the Hamilton was issued in June 1982. I also have a Stocker & Yale 184A (SandY 184A) that was issued to the 7th ID GI at Fort Ord before it was disbanded. It is unused, still in the box. This watch meets the requirements of the MIL-W-46374 spec.
