    And I was going to ask if you had a Timor....and as if by magic it appeared.

    My PC is rather old.......

    However, I have two, so if anyone wants one.......

    Nice collection.

    Very nice collection, no doubt a lot of history too, but most of it sadly forgotten now...

    Very nice as usual Foggy.

    I've never seen a Buren military before.

    Regarding Timor did they make Civvie watches as well as I don't recall ever seeing one?
    Cheers,
    Neil.

    Hi Neil

    Yes, they did. I can't remember seeing too many, but I have definitely seen some ladies watches signed Timor on the dial.

    WWW

    Foggy,

    What are the dial markings on the WWW with the reddish (brown) Nato strap? They look like numbers to me. Who is the manufacturer and what markings are on the case back? Just curious as I have not seen markings like this unless its a distortion of the manufacturers name.

    Rgds,

    Terry

    Foggy!

    Thanks for sharing, impressive collection. I like military and mil-spec watches better than divers and "fancy watches".

    rgds,
    /joakim+/

    BTW, think this is the first time I post twice on the same thread. :shock: Hope it does not become a habit. :wink:

    Hi Terry

    They are indeed numbers - 10034. The dial is an MOD replacement dial, hence the parts numbers on the dial. The watch in question is a Record WWW. I have seen the replacement dials used on other WWW's.

    Note also the dial of the Buren with the circle P, denoting Prometheum - again a later MOD replacement.

    Cheers

    Hi Steve

    The Omega will be late WWII, the others post WWII.
