I still have all of them. 

It is quite rewarding to build such a collection of vintage military watches. Not an easy game! 

Best,

Nicolas

Wow very nice !

Can you develop more on the models ? I noticed the Pocket GSTP watch, the Weems, the Dirty Dozen, I don't know the others (one looks like the IWC Mark 11) ? Great collection, congrats !

Bravo! Yes, the pocket watch GS /TP, the Mark VII Weems, the Mark 7 Fat Lugs ( quite rare ), the WWW ( Dirty Dozen ) and the JLC Mark 11 for the Royal Australian Navy ( quite rare, too ).

You are too kind. I started this JLC military collection in 2007, ended in 2011.

Ooo, what is the white dialed piece

These are rare birds…extinct rare birds. Wish JLC can revisit these designs. A simple Dirty Dozen reissue, with a nice movement, is all it takes. That being said, I have newfound respect for the Mariner Perpetual Calender. That is a gem. I find myself thinking of it sometimes.
