Rare Inscribed Vintage 1919 WW1 Royal Engineers Military TRENCH Collectors Watch
Welcome to peregrinz vintage watches auctions worldwide! Very interesting timepiece which bears a fascinating and important personal inscription on the back dated 16. It is a nice quality trench watch from the first world war period and presents a superb opportunity for the amateur military enthusiast to investigate the provenance of the individual named on the back of the watch.

It is not working currently though it ticks briefly when shaken. It is in original condition and comes on an open ended strap which may or may not be original. Is a black backdrop with orange arabic painted numbers and skeleton hands.

Chrome or steel - bears the following inscription. Presented to corpl hutson by no 10 section d co 3. As i understand it this is from d company of the 3. Battalion reserve of the royal engineers.

The significance of the date itself however or corporal hutson himself has not been pursued by us. Mms across including the crown. Mms top to bottom not including the lugs. The movement is signed 7 jewels 1 adjustment. Though the balance is ok and it will tick briefly on occasion.

And only on these terms. As per photos - please see below. It comes on what may or may not be the original strap though we suspect it is probably slightly later.
