MoD (UK) Watch Standards 1966-2002
For those who collect recently issued military watches of the United Kingdom, there is a CD which may be of interest:

MoD Standards 1966-02

The comments (+ or -) of anyone who has purchased this CD would be appreciated.

Best regards,

Greg

Thank you Enzo.

These are really intersting links.

From looking at the link you provided, it appears that the United Kingdom began replacing mechanical watches with "electronic" quarts models in 1981.

Another intersting item is found on table IIIB, which indicates that at one time the Bonklip watch braclet was an issued item - in more than one size. Lots of information here - too much to comment upon at one time.

Best regads,

Greg
