Up for sale is this rare JLC with rich history behind it.In the 1940s 12 watch brands created watches for the British Military which came to be known as the "Dirty Dozen" by collectors. The MoD (Ministry of Defense) set the specifications, and 12 brands created similar watches. This particular watch is the MoD dial version of the piece. All these pieces are stamped WWW which means "Watches Wristlet Waterproof."Lots of great info at this link: W.W.W. - Wrist Watch Waterproof Click on the MoD scans to see examples identical to what is available for sale here.Of course, this is the JLC model, which many consider the most desirable. The watch has a 35mm case diameter (chrome-topped with a cool matte-steel look), 17mm lug width, and the JLC cal 479 movement.This is a great example given its age. The case does of course show wear (see pictures), but is very good considering its age. The dial is excellent. Hands are intact and have aged nicely (some lume bits missing). All lume shockingly still glows nicely but dissipates fairly quick. The watch is on a practically new Hadley Roma strap with new spring bars. The acrylic crystal has some light scratches, could of course be buffed out.The watch does run! Wearable as it is, though would benefit from a service. It's running a bit fast, a couple minutes per day or so. No service history, selling it as-is.Asking $3000.I have done several transactions on WUS, have many more references on other forums, and over 1500 eBay feedback.Please don't hesitate to ask me any questions or request specific pictures.Thanks!
