WWI Trench Watch and their beginning

Pocketwatches are bulky for soldiers in the field and can limit the soldiers need to access to their watches while their hands were occupied in the trenches. The earlier model of trench watches are modification of pocketwatches with wire lugs wielded around the case to hold the leather straps. The case are usually in gun metal or steel or silver. The dial is usually porcelain.

A Typical WWI Trench Wrist Watch.

Hi Sinn Watch Collectors,

Earlier SINN watches were sold as OEM pilots Swiss watches.The company was sold in 1994 to a Lothar Schmidt who name a company Sinn which market the watches out from Frankfurt, so you do not see the "Swiss Made" on the dial anymore.

WWII Seiko Gents Watch

Hi Watch Collectors,

There are many modern Seiko Watches around in the market but good vintage pieces are hard to come by. I found this piece during my trip to PNG which I bought it from the market place. This piece is unique as it is a case within a case. The era of this watch is 1940. I suspect this piece was taken from some Japanese Soldier during the battle in PNG.

1940s Solid Pink/ Rose Gold Boy Rolex

Hi Watch Collectors,

Just got back from my business trip again. Just found this piece recently in a old shop. That is the reason why I like to go to old and forgotten towns because they have old shops. You will never know what you can find. I must admit, it is getting harder to find good pieces of vintage watches.

Here is the watch:

A 1940s Boy Rolex in Solid Pink/ Rose Gold. Rolex and many brand watches are bringing back the Pink/ Rose Gold in their recent watches. I like vintage pieces because they simply are rare.
