Wehrmacht German stop watch ?

[dedehansen]

Hello Gentlemen,

I´ve got this cased stop watch.

Is it possible to say:

is it German

how old is it

what was it used for ?


Case

Watch in opened case

Is there anything on the back?

I think it would be very hard to say what it's originality is without some kind of makers/jewlers marks to start looking.......

In my opinion (and this comes from years of watch collecting, much longer than orders and medals collection ) I think the dial is a re-dial from the pictures you've presented, it looks too clean to be older, if the watch is German, it should have a distinguishing feature to it on the dial (it looks like there is some writing just over your Sammlung watermark, if it lacks something, it has either been over cleaned or re-dialed. If you could, please post a closer picture of the white hue on the dial.

If you can open the reverse and let us see the movement as well, it would definatley let us know the very least if it is an original piece or a copy, they've made some fantastic fakes and "franken" watches over the years, pairing older movements into newer cases.

If it is legit, I can do a movement search for you and try to come up with a possible candidate :D
