Notes
Our vintage military pocket watch, by Cyma (Swiss), features a 15 jewel cal. 775 manually wound movement, 52mm stainless steel case with snap on caseback. Unusually this example has a black dial with arabic indices , (no longer) luminous Arabic 3,9, 12 and hands. This example has issued engraving on the caseback: broad arrow (pheon) / G.S.T.P. (general service trade pattern). These were issued to ground troops throughout World War II, (1939-1945), we date this issue M88906 to mid 1940s. Unusually this example also comes with a later Russian stamped leather aviator style strap (in used condition) enabling use on the wrist as well as its original ring to be used as a pocket watch. A great piece of militaria, ideal for a collection, and offering comparatively good value for a military watch. This example benefits from new glass and a service prior to retail.
