Instead of spending months on hear or bidding for watches of <ahem> dubious provenance on e-bay there is an alternative method for building a collection of military watches quickly easily and above all cheaply: http://www.military-watches-collection.com.
No need to thank me.
4th thread!!
We got there before you and have started already
For my collection only original old military watches!
Ah, I did look for another thread elsewhere but obviously not well enough. My apologies for the annoyance caused.
I'll get my army surplus great coat.
