WW2 German Wehrmacht Taschenuhren – PERSONAL POCKET WATCH – SILVANA – PUBLISHED!

Made of a chrome-plated brass case, this Swiss-made Silvana watch is in EXCELLENT functioning condition, and featured on page 423 in Dr. Konrad Knirim’s, “Military Timepieces” book. Though the crystal shows some light scratches, the dial and hands are in near MINT condition, with NO damage or corrosion! Note that because I use a camera flash, the scratches show up WAY more pronounced than they actually are. I did not even notice scratches until reviewing the photos (they are not noticeable in-person). The manufacture name is clearly marked on the face, and was manufactured between 1939 and 1945. Being in used condition, the case does show some signs of wear (scratches, marks, patina), but it is in otherwise VERY NICE condition for its age. The reverse is stamped with “D 346674 H” (DH = Dienstuhr Heer Service Watch). The movement has not been serviced in 30 years, so even though it is currently running, I would suggest getting it cleaned for daily use. A VERY nice and original item for any collection, or display!
