Description: Nice vintage steel watch from the WWII era. Runs well. Not a marked military watch, but this is a military grade watch, typically something that would have been privately purchased and worn by a military officer. All steel 34mm case with screw down back cover, water tight, anti magnetic shield. Dependable and easy to read. This is what a soldier needs. The Alpina caliber 592 is a vintage manual-wind mechanical movement. This caliber was produced in the. The 592 has an Incabloc anti-shock protection (Incabloc was invented in 1934). Alpina is one of the mostly forgotten “grand old names” of the Swiss watch industry. The caliber 592 was one of their finest designs. It was widely used in WWII era German watches, most notably in watches made for the Kriegsmarine. In 1948 the school of watchmaking at the cantonal polytechnic in Biel chooses the 12-ligne hand-wound Alpina caliber 592 to serve as the school’s didactic caliber. This choice underscores the fact that this movement was especially precise, reliable and robust.
