Probably not a military watch but could you post some pics of the caseback and of the movement?

I'd be careful with it. All the missing lume on the hands is radium. It must have went somewhere.

I suspect this is ‘Military Issued’ …and the DH serial code, subsequently ‘ground off’ the back…after the War

What size is the chrome case ?

Thank you, for answer.
37mm exterior diameter of case.

Or dissolved out from wear as the metal under that chrome is not very good. Consistent with the rest of the sweat etching on the case.

A very defined line…that suggests more than random sweat ingress, I think …and given the post war need to recycle, whilst distancing oneself, from the recent past…entirely feasible

I have seen other examples, of the ‘Düsseldorf’ branding with the ‘Deutsches Heer’ serial coding
