Shoot me down in flames......

Hello All

I have been trying to find the answer to this question on the web/fora etc but can't find a straight forward answer anywhere. I suspect that there is, in fact, not a straight forward answer....hence the lack of info. As a newcomer to this hobby I find the military watches very attractive and appealing - what I am finding difficult is trying to work out where to find vintage varieties from. Any advice gratefully received - I'm going to guess that fleabay and lurking around sales corner might be the answer. If it helps, I'm based in London, so if there are any physical real world places that you all could suggest (nothing overpriced please!) that would be great too.

Many thanks to all and indeed Eddie for this magnificent resource

Cheers

Good luck.
