Is it that thze Damas Co. later became Damasko ? :P :wink:
Just kidding, of course. :D
Seriously, I know nothing about the watch. Looks nice, though!
Here's a piece I picked up today.
Know nothing about it but it is running well and miltary marked so I had to buy it.
And I don't even collect military watches! :lol:
Anyone know anything more?
Cheers,
Neil.

Hi Neil
Not much to say that you won't already know. GSTP - ie General Service Timepiece/General Service Temporary Pattern. Plenty of these ordered in the rush before WWII. Lots of makers from high-end down to mid range makers. 15 jewel movements.
Examples found by makers such as Omega, JLC, Frenca, Omega, Damas, Grana, Cyma, Leonidas, Cortebert, Helvetia and more. Would be a nice themed collection to have a GSTP from each of the different makers. I'm estimating there are probably around 15 to 20.
Cheers

Thanks Foggy,
I took the back off and was surprised to find a lovely gold coloured movement with geneva striping!
Looks better inside than out. :lol:
Cheers,
Neil.
