HI, Nice, I am a bit of a watch fan, also without the insanely expensive stuff. You can get some really decent stuff on ebay. My problem is ... i am a bit clumsy with the stuff and they do tend to break if not treated right...

I think an understanding of the time/Place is needed... there must have been a big confusion there during the war... were other soldiers simply (Colonial etc), the remains of other units... simply under Legion command? I imagine the reality on the ground made for circumstances we can barely imagine today. The uniform in the initial photo is probably pieced together from waht was availible at the time.

Chris Boonzaier replied to Gordon Craig's topic in Firearms & Ordnance
Hi Gordon, please note though... there are big differences between Europe and North america prices. The last 2 MG08/15s I saw in canada were between $2500 and 3000, both on collectors guild over the last 10 years Best Chris -

Chris Boonzaier replied to Gordon Craig's topic in Firearms & Ordnance
Hi, I think a nice MG08/15 in Europe will be around EUR4000-6000, a MG08 with Sledge mount upward of EUR10-12000 A lot depends on of all the doodads are there, original paintwork is a huuuuuge plus.... In Canada its cheaper though.... -
