    Yes, i believe they are. Non the less they have the original movements. it is obvious that they didnt produce wristwatches that size back then so it could not be an original wrist watch, nor did i say that it was. So if you are trying to imply that i was trying to pass off something that wasent you are mistaken.

    Well certainly they are nice looking (I've liked the looks of many produced out of vintage pocket watches over there). But the only thing "Military" about them is the style of the dial the resto/mod people did. Never issued, not a war piece by any means.

    Still, if everyone is being honest about what they are, they are attractive pieces cosmetically IMO. Wonder if they were in decent shape before the mods? I hope not (the fear is two fold, one that a true vintage which holds little financial value will be sacrificed in hopes that someone will pay much more for them thinking they are "vintage military", and second, that someone would actually do so, being defrauded by the Seller for a bit of profit).
    Regards, T Bone.
