DESCRIPTION
This particular recreation came into being because in January 2009 we were approached by a US veterans association who asked us to examine the viability of making a watch which was identical in appearance to the original GG-W-113 watches which were during the Vietnam war. As a result of making that watch, we were contacted again with a view to recreating this even earlier WW2 model because these are now almost impossible to find in good sound condition because as outlined above most were made from 1943 onwards when resources were limited and hence cheap metal was used.
