    I really like the look of the watch. What's its history?

    Lewismark your right there underrated than all the issued Bunds I got it what I paid for my Heuer Bund 6 or 7 years ago and those Heuer bunds just about doubled in price since. The bezel ring just so unique on these and that just gives them this cool look.

    When I sent the Janghans in for service I also sent this WW1 Zenith US Army Signal Corps wristlet in also it had a plastic cracked crystal so had it service and the crystal replaced with a period correct beveled glass crystal. So got two watches back the same day.

    Here is a interesting thread about the Kiefer SS Expandro bracelet these were issued with.

    Since the issued ones are dam rare I found a civilian one on Ebay it's 19.3mm so will have to file the ends on the bracelet to fit not bad for 24 bucks and NOS.
