I only have one issued watch, this 1953 Omega CK2777 fat arrow.
Lovely wearable size, accurate to 4s a day and just a beautiful watch.

Only one,it’s enough with a beauty like that it looks in great condition :eagerness:
Three I have owned (not the Russian).
Bulova type A-11 silver cased, Record WWW, CWC with original band.

I think these are close to the perfect everyday grab and go watches
Small slim and comfortable with a sweep chrono hand

This is issued, one of only 30 or so.

The ZUZ unit has a lot to answer for, being the best horologically-equipped unit ever.
The EZM1 was designed for them in 1997, and issued to them in very small numbers prior to civilian versions being released.
Not content with that, at the same time they approoached Tutima and got them to make these Commandos especially for them, adding (like the EZM1) a bi-directional bezel to the spediciation of a normal Commando II.
And 10 years later they were deemed to have reached the end of their service life and auctioned off.
Which is where I got mine.

Heuer 510.503. This was issued to me, in the Army, circa 1980. Only 10 of us had them as far as I recall. Still going strong. A wonderful watch. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...7c27dd70e0.jpg

I've posted these previously on the forums but here goes.
Seiko RAF Issue Gen 1. Issued to me in 1988 when I started Advanced Flying Training with the RAF. This has quite a bit of sentimental value and from issue to 2001 went on many operations before my career went a somewhat different way.

Seiko RAF Issue Gen 2. Issued to me when the above watch (and my ID card and passport) failed to follow me home after I was medivac'd out of Kosovo. We were reunited about 6 months later - God only knows where they went in the interim!

This one from 1985 doesn’t look like it’s seen much active service.

Not issued , but made to United States Military standard.

Mostly a bit modern for my liking.
WWII, when they used to issue good watches. :wink-new:

The markings were sanded off of this Longines but you can still see the remnants in the right light.

Last but not least this Omega.
No markings but original aluminium case so supplied to the military.
Movement dates from 1939 -44.

The funny thing is I don't really have any interest in military watches as they all look a bit dull to me but these are some bits I have come across over the years.
I've sold a lot more!
Seeing as you asked.
