I own these two beauties and I was able to check their history at pocketwatchdatabase.com. Perhaps these other sites may work out for you.

Absolutely. Wow! We practically have the same identical watch. Thanks for sharing. There are three special watches to me. My first one given to me from my dad. the first one I purchased with my own money, and the one issued to me by the military. Definitely keepers to hand down when the time comes.

I hear you. I was lucky to find this one. Modded watches are cool and there is definitely a place for them. But modding a completely all-original vintage is sacrilege in my opinion.

The watchmaker did a great job. I cannot give you down to the second accuracy. But I do like to sync all of my watches with the US Navy's Atomic Clock. What I have noticed so far is that as long as I keep it wound it keeps great accuracy for about three weeks.

Thank you! Yes, it looks as it should. I think watches look their best when they reflect their owner's trade. Not just a tool, but also a symbol of pride and dedication to their craft.

When do you think that is too much.

Okay, I'll admit it. I'm guilty of owning a couple of homages. But sometimes I wonder when a homage is just an excuse for a cheaper and sometimes sorr...
