I don't think i have seen this one before. I heard rumors of this watch but i have not seen it yet. Did i miss the thread??? IF not please start a new thread and introduce this great watch! Thanks Brian
I think I was overthinking it.

I think they are initials and year purchased. '61 is the perfect date for this watch. Brian
Fixed lugs!

There is one fixed lug at 12 o'clock. I know that only from the tr-900. Any more pics? Stephan
Here is photo of a fixed lugs.

Photo credit goes to Viktoria at mwr. It is a 4K serial number. I think it was an exhibition piece with military ties. Brian ...
Civil?

n my opinion, it is a civil one, it is identical to one of my Milspec The AM have the bars larger diameter welded but the lug is not pierced and are not numbered. Excuse my bad English. ...
I agree on the welding of the lugs.
By: Briandumais : June 23rd, 2017-10:58
And the fixed lugs that i have seen before do not go thru the lugs all the way. So i am thinking the single fixed bar might just be a quick fix. Brian

Small crown

Serial number closed to mine. Mine Milspec has a big crown. Thus I think mine has a replacement! Stephan
what the hell

makes that price !?! Is it the engraving ? What movement has this watch? I think it was a civilian Milspec. used by professionals.
double Swiss
By: XX-FF : June 30th, 2017-06:34
Indeed surprising price without knowing the movement but watching the dial carefully I wonder if it is not a double Swiss.
Love this forum.

Connected with the USN, had such an abbreviation; AM. Even if i did not see the AM engraving in any other militar watch connected with the US Navy, it could have sense!
