American Military Watch?


Recommended Posts

Part of my father's expanding collection, this pocket watch is known to be UK issued and military due to its broad arrow stamp.  However, we cannot trace the serial number and know it should relate to a military division.

Can anyone she'd any light?

It's not the MOD serial and part number for the watch is it?

My eye magnifier has the arrow symbol and 6C/152 under it which is the serial and part number which would of been used to order it from supplies

you can look up the Elgin serial number at the link below. Then if you go searching online you can find other examples of Elgin watches with TK on the back. The numbers appear to actually be a serial number then TK may actually be T. K. if you look up British military designations TK  comes up as tank. But searching for tank watches comes up with basically nothing.

    • if you're trying to keep track of conversations scattered all over the message board emails are an absolute must.   looking at the bell icon on the top of the page versus the emails today it looks like I got the correct amount of emails. So making some minor change based on the one of the images up above I started getting notifications again. But at times I still have a suspicion that something isn't quite right. I have some feeling that the message board may delay sending emails until something so seems to be a long delay between when you get your emails just a weird feeling things aren't quite right oh  and then even though I do seem to be getting emails I no longer get notifications of personal messages I don't find that out until I arrived at the message board where I'm pretty sure I used to get notifications of those two. So something is definitely changed on the message board. then for everyone not getting emails you do want to check your spam folder. I have found that sometimes were open up an email the system I use warns me that it thinks the email is evil and bad and I have no idea why he thinks some of the emails are and some are not. But this is actually the program I use not the email system which also has a mind of its own as to what it considers spam so you should always check your spam folder.
