·Just bought this today off eBay. First pocket watch I bought in years. Been wanting a British Navy deck watch so nocked one off the want list. This has an Elgin 22 jewel BW Raymond movement same movement that they used in railroad watches. Figure these were from the lend lease program to help supply our allies in WW2. They also used this same movement in the US Army Air Corps navigation watch but that had a black 24-hour dial. Had to pay a 50-buck tariff for something that was made in the USA does that make sense.
