    Anyone interested in making an offer on this hard to find
    1943 WWII US Army Air Force Pilot Watch?
    I will listen to any offer
    The entire case and crown are sterling silver unlike
    those being cobbled together and sold on Ebay
    These sterling silver cased watches were issued to officers in the early part
    of the war and many were issued to pilots
    There are no spots on the dial-those are shadows in my pictures
    I have not seen a nicer dial on a WWII watch than this
    Also, most WWII issued watches were made of chrome and steel
    so most are brassed and beat up-mine is not, it is a nice example
    and was serviced in 2014
    If you want to add a WWII watch to your collection, this is
    the one-the A 11 is the most famous of all-the watch that won the war
