Watch Description

This is  what I believe to be a 1943 Air Warden.  It is a 26MM case and a black dial with lumed hour markers.  The movement is a 10BS with a + date code.   I included a photo of three 26MM watches I have to show a comparison.

[quote=Kathy L.]  thank you for the Ads.   These watches are so small I can’t imagine a soldier wearing them .    I wonder if there’s any historical photographs showing man wearing these watches.
