Seems to be a shortage of wristwatch posts, so I thought I'd add one. Wittnauer 11AWK, bumper automatic. Not running, over banked, balance and hairspring look OK, case back missing. Might be military issue? Case,Dial and hands look decent, crown may be a replacement. Thoughts, opinions.

I like it. Clean her up and put a nice leather strap on it and show us some after pictures.
Here's my "daily driver" - Mathey-Tissot bumper after Chris Abell put her back on the road for me. Dial and hands refinished and relumed. Keeps near perfect time and I rarely have to wind it unless it sets for more than a day.
