    I was very lucky to find a full set 105.003-63 sold originally to US Army Thule Base in Greenland. A few months later, I was again very very lucky to find her sister, because it was 1 s/n earlier than my first 105.003-63.

    Amazingly the patina of their bezel and markers are almost the same...

    Here the full set (is in the book)

    haha, no the price of the watch... Pay attention that this is not an optional bracelet but a JB I had.

    Saying they were sold to the U.S.Army is kind of misleading as they were not army issue, they were sold to the PX for sale to the troops.

    What a cool find! I´ve never seen that before, did you realise immediately on seeing the second one, or was it a later discovery?

    When it was for sale, I immediately realised that they were twins and I needed to buy it, especially that it was in very cool condition
