    NAAFI ! Navy, Army and Air Force Institutes. A watch - often a Speedmaster :) - delivered to and sold by the British Forces to Servicemen.

    @oddboy linked to it, so I'll dothe obligatory necro post:
    I thought CONUS meant CONtiguous United States. Is Alaska included in CONUS, or not?

    No. Alaska and Hawaii are not CONUS.

    Contiguous means all together not related to continent.

    Correct and that is how the military uses the word. Soldiers get extra pay for working in Alaska or Hawaii.

    However, lots of watch sellers use the word CONUS even if they would actually be happy to ship to Hawaii or Alaska; ask them if you're interested...
