This information remains approximate, as some models have been listed as dating from an earlier period.

Here we have an example dating from the 1950s.
This piece was part of a watch stock, some other examples of which were intended for German forces. They were never worn or distributed.

Despite its age, the watch still has tiny micro-flaws due to its transport and storage for nearly 100 years.
