Military Watch Magazine

[4G63T]

Just seen an advert on TV for a military watch magazine, and you get a repro watch from whatever year they are covering in the magazine, from the army issue watch of that year aswell as a magazine to do with the watch and 'other stuff' to do with that year.

I don't really know what the movement are, or if they are accurate, but I think it might be interesting to some, as it give information about the military issue watch and poss watches about that time aswell.

its £3.99 for the first issue, the second is £6.99 and from then on, its £9.99.


the watches are probably not that accurate for that price, but if they are repro the movement should be aswell, so I'm guessing a manual winder.

you could also change the movement for something more modern and keep the watch case/bezel/glass and strap if you were so way inclined.


I have subscribed, just for the information on the watches and military of that time, and the watches and cases to keep the watches in aswell, as its a bit of (repro) military history i am quite happy to pay a tenner a episode for them, as i am quite into my military stuff, as I have a few different military things from back in the day, even a army helmet from Vietnam with a bullet hole in it which killed whoever was wearing it.


the web address to subscribe to it is http://military-watches-collection.com

They're quartz.. picked up the first issue, don't actually mind the watch - it sits in my work drawer as a spare, incase i leave the house without a watch on

I subscribed a couple of nights ago, well worth a punt I thought. I already have a couple of vintage Russian military watches that I dont like to wear to work incase i damage them, so thought I'd give it ago. Says the watches have a Jap quartz movement and are guaranteed for two years. They plan 80 issues so that's a lot of watches and I'd imagine if they were utter ste, they would have no subscribers after only a couple of issues. Time will tell.

I have experience with publisher Eagle Moss before, with the 1/8th scale DB5 they did. Appalling customer service, would never deal with them again.
