Vintage Military Style Men's Mechanical Wristwatch for Parts - A mid-20th century military-style mechanical wristwatch by an unidentified maker. The timepiece features a dark dial with printed Arabic numeral hour markers from 1 to 12. The dial bears the printed inscriptions WATERPROOF in the upper half and SHOCKPROOF above the sub-dial. A sub-seconds dial is positioned at 6 o'clock, featuring a railway track scale with numerals at the 15, 45, and 60 positions. The watch is housed in a circular case, likely chrome-plated base metal or stainless steel, with integrated lugs. The case back is plain with no visible markings or serial numbers. The crystal is highly aged and discolored. One spring bar remains attached to the lower lugs. Case diameter: approximately 31mm Lug-to-lug length: approximately 38mm Lug width: approximately 16mm. Poor, non-functioning condition. The watch is offered strictly for parts or restoration. The winding crown is entirely missing, leaving an open hole in the side of the case. The crystal is heavily scratched, crazed, and significantly yellowed with age. The metal case exhibits extensive surface wear, deep scratches, and pitting, particularly on the lugs and case back. The dial shows heavy patina and aging. The internal movement has not been inspected and is assumed to be non-operational.
