    First came across these guys on Instagram. I am not really on Instagram but if a link takes me there I sometimes look around. Watch memes are so funny. Anyway I digressed, having seen Watches Of Espionage on Instagram, I didn't know they had a website. Well they do. It's not exactly "military" but I suppose it kinda is. Some really interesting watch stories. The one below is one of my favourites.
