Sold A rare opportunity to own and wear a real WWII issued US Navy Canteen Watch used by the Underwater Demolition Team (UDT) Navy Frogmen This watch is Real, not a reproduction.

Here are the details: -USN BuShips (Bureau of Ships) on the dial with Hamilton blacked out but still visible above 6:00 -Manual Wind Hamilton 987s 17 Jewel Movement (only 22,000 of these movements were produced for the Navy during WWII) -Hacking mechanism works (second hand stops when crown pulled out) -Keystone Case Company Case -"W" between the lugs-correct for the watch -Dust Cover -Case back serial number matches the movement serial number-see pictures -Just completely overhauled, serviced/cleaned and new staff installed by my watch man -Running and keeping good time -Chrome case top with some brassing around the crown and around the edges- consistent with an issued watch from WWII -Steel case back with correct military inscriptions and numbers -Measures approx 40 mm lug to lug x 32 mm not including crown -Movement pictures below were taken before the watch was serviced- new old stock gaskets were installed by my watch man after the pictures were taken -No strap or bars included I am selling this watch because I have another in my collection This is a rare opportunity to own a very cool diver-the first military issued diver made I have sold other watches on this forum-references available upon request $1999.99 delivered to the US via Priority Mail International Delivery via USPS First Class Registered Mail-extra $33 Questions, etc via PM Interesting trades and offers considered
