MILITARY WATCHES GENERAL INFORMATION AND DETECTING THE FAKES
This Website is intended to give you an insight into the most common military issued watches which your are likely to come across. I have basically only scratched the surface as there is such a vast range of models found all over the world. I recommend an excellent book by Ziggy Wesolowski see below. This book contains information regarding all the well know manufacturers including all those referred to here such as Omega, Rolex, IWC, CWC, MWC, Smith, Breitling, Omega and many more.

Remarks: | Excellent book that gives a general overview of military timepieces from 1880 till 1990. Short and illustrative descriptions of particular watches, with clear photographs. Although this book does not cover all military timepieces, and the descriptive text could be more elaborate, I would recommend this book to anyone that has an interest in military timepieces from a collector's point of view. |
