This is a MID 1960’S WESTCLOX MID VIETNAM WAR FIELD WATCH THAT WAS SOLD AT THE US MILITARY POST EXCHANGE (PX). THIS MODEL AND COLOR COMBINATION IS EXTREMELY RARE TO THE MARKET. ESPECIALLY ONE IN PROPER FULL WORKING ORDER AND IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. HER M101 CALIBER DRIVE STARTS RIGHT UP ON YOUR FIRST FINGER WIND. A TRULY SWEET CALIBER DRIVE. HER DIAL FACE WITH LUMINOUS HANDS,
ARROWED DOT HOUR MARKER STATIONS IN A BURNT MILITARY GOLD.
OF COURSE THE DIAL IS EQUIPPED SECONDARILY WITH 12 THRU TO 24 HOUR MARKER POSITIONS.
SHE RUNS WITH NO ISSUES AND KEEPS GREAT TIME! HER CUFF WAS HAND MADE BY THE SON OF A LOST UDON HERO.
THESE PERIOD WATCHES ARE FOR SURE RARE TO THE MARKET. ESPECIALLY THOSE THAT ARE RUNNING AND IN GREAT TO VERY GOOD CONDITION. THIS WATCH IS JUST THAT. IT WAS STORED FOR THE PAST 26 YEARS. A PRECIOUS TIME KEEP.
THIS AND OTHER MILITARY OFFERED TIMEPIECES WERE MADE DURING THE MID-VIETNAM WAR ERA. AND WERE OFFERED TO SOLDIERS AND CIVILIAN BASE PERSONNEL. THEY WERE SOLD AT THE AUXILIARY POST (PX). WITHOUT QUESTION, NOT MANY REMAIN. AS MOST HAD THE HABIT OF TOSSING OUT MUCH OF WHAT REMINDED THEM OF THIS TIME PERIOD.
TODAY, THEY SERVE AS A REMINDER OF TRUE HEROISM, BROTHERHOOD AND THE ULTIMATE PATRIOTISM.
AND FOR US WATCH COLLECTORS, WE KNOW THAT ALONG WITH THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE MANY MADE, THERE WERE SOME WATCH COMPANIES LIKE WESTCLOX (Movado) THAT PRODUCED A HIGH QUALITY MADE WATCH FOR SUCH MEN.
HERE’S ONE FINE EXAMPLE!

Is this watch military issue? Do you have a picture of the back of the watch case?

@rashe96
I will update with photos of the watch back side. Unfortunately, this price is not negotiable!! Take a peak on the e bay and see that this is the deal of the century here!!

did you make the leather band?

@lvwsr68 I’m so sorry I did not see these questions. With all the inundated Poshmark messages I simply blew past most in recent months. I will update photos of the back watch cover. And as to the cuff, it is hand carved. No by me, but by the son of a lost his dad from one of the guerilla attacks at UBon. It’s a great looking cuff indeed!!
