It's been reported on Hodinkee that Admiralties were never issued to the military

This is despite the existence of at least three different, albeit quite rare, models with military dials (longhorn 565, shorthorn 565 and 552, and handwinder 601 and 603).

But, I've found images of what appears to be a "broad arrow" Admiralty:



These are from MWF, which, for some reason, I can't access. Can anyone confirm that there was at least one military issue of the Admiralty? Any further information would be helpful, as I'm trying to compile a modest catalogue of these little gems. https://omegaforums.net/threads/comprehensive-omega-admiralty-thread.69037/page-15

The owner of the Omega on MWR has an EofA from Omega and it is noted in the extract as a prototype for the MOD. I think the thought is that it was a Dive Supervisor prototype.
