A fresh picture of my Lecoultre Mark VII Weems from the early II World War.



A watch loaded with history, and full of charm. 

And... what a character! 

Best,

Nicolas

Ah wonderful. What stories that watch could tell. Regards Kev. [nt]

Why is it called "Weems"?

Commander Weems was the inventor of the 60 seconds rotating bezel for the time synchronization during the flight, in the mid Thirties. [nt]
