Put on my Bulova A11 this morning but took this picture before putting it on. My Grandfathers type A2 flight jacket with the watch. Both date from approximately 1943 and he was likely issued a similar watch when issued the jacket. Jacket was worn while serving with the 13th US Army Air Force in the South Pacific.
You have an awesome collection of watches! This Viggen took my breath away and made my knees buckle - thank you for sharing!
Thank you. This one is super special and took me so long to find one, I feel the same way every time I look at it. Waiting for IWC Mark XI from 52 issued to RAF next week. Another grail I spent so much time looking.
It will be interesting to see how the new VAER "Dirty Dozen" watch sells, particularly compared to the Time Factors Smith's varieties which are not readily available and require being online at the right time. https://www.vaerwatches.com/collections/popular-watches/products/a12-dirty-dozen
If you need spares for the Mk 11 from 1952, we still have some parts left. PM best. Kind regards. Achim
Type 20 issued to French Air Force. These have such a beautiful case backs. This one shows markings that span 25 years of service.
On the wrist for most of the day seeing to all the chores her ladyship deemed essential Yes the date is out
Thumbs up. Wayyyyy up. I don't wear this one often, but it's always a pleasure when I do. Eterna Majetek with the crossed swords at 11.
