Watches

[Buster]

 Here's a bargain I discovered, there's was a series of magazines  called military  watches of the world, you get a mag and a repro watch every month , I think they where £10 or thereabouts, well if you go into pound land/ pound world, they have some of the Watches, they have been  repacked as fashion watches and they are only a £1, not the best quality but for a pound they are ideal for work. As you can see I have bought a few. It's just your luck what they have in at the time, there where loads more in the series including ww2 Luftwaffe  & german soldier .

Wartime Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine watches are very collectable, you just don't see any, and very expensive. Post war Soviet watches flooded the markets after 1989/90, very cheap and reliable, they also had some good spare leather wrist straps, very durable. All gone now.

I remember when these came out, the German ones were very smart, you can't go wrong for a pound

I have been wearing  one of the RAF ones for a month day & night and its still going ! . I took my Armani  watch to get a new battery fitted & it cost me £10 !!!  I could have bought 10 of these repro watches for that, & when it goes dead just bin it & unbox another .
