Was about to say just a Pulsar this evening but they did serve many well,

 

Cool to have your Grandfathers flight jacket looks like he was a bombardier from the wings. My dad was a flight engineer and ball turret gunner on US Navy avengers torpedo aircraft and PBY's during WW2 gone now miss him. My dad was on the USS Bunker Hill when a kamikaze hit the flight deck on the invasion of Okinawa.

 

Dodane Type 21 today... HAGD All!

 

Thanks, You are correct about the bombardier. He was a bombardier on a B-24 13th airforce, 5th Bombardment Group "the Bomber Barons". Unfortunately, he is no longer with us as well and sorely missed. Sorry about about your dad but comparing what we are going throug to what your Dad and my Grandfather did seems to make things seems a little trival.

 

Really nice movement. issued to the US Army signal corps.

 

Plus my credentials for this thread

CWC RN QM60 just landed today

 

Universal Geneva Cairelli today.

 

Omega 2777-1 Thin Arrow... HAGD All!

 

I have to correct my post from yesterday! Although made for a MoD contract for the RN (and sold as such from CWC!), it actually is coded for the Marines! I look at it as fortuitous, as I was needing a Marine watch in the collection

 

Lovely piece, must confess I could happily wear mine 24/7 if I didn't have other pieces.

 

Tree pruning with the Pulsar today,

 

Korean war era Bulova... HAGD All!
