    Nice collection of Military watches you have there, I like the fact you have a CWC for the RM and a old one for the RAF. I am looking for a RM (0555) and a RAF CWC for my collection.

    Re: Sharing my Military collection

    Well i buy Watches to wear and my favourite from this lot i think has to be the CWC Diver,

    I have a large wrist and it looks fantastic, you also dont even feel like your wearing a Watch.

    Saying that, since i took delivery of the PRS-18 yesterday i've never had it off my wrist so my favourite might change, although i do find it a little too tall, crossing my arms can be quite painful :?

    I have only two at present, both worn, the Precista is my swimming watch.
    Although many years ago, probably in the early '70's I bought an ex WD Longines I believe to be a 'Greenlander" cost me about £10, I gave it to a friend of mine, ah well that's life! 8)
