Yes.

Can you substantiate the existence of SS Ausbildungs Abteilung 132? Or is the property number 132 of the SS Ausbildungs Abteilung? Junghans is a famous watchmaker. Why isn't the eagle above the SS unit marking an SS style eagle? The watch is guaranteed but not the marking?

The proper case for this watch:

And the proper whistle to use to start the race:

So what is the conclution folks?

1. Orginal watch for werhmacht (heer) and SS, but not a "textbook" item
2. Orginal watch made for wehr, and then modifyed for SS (not textbook)
3. Orginal watch made for wehr, and then made into a SS fake
4. Orginal watch..stamps and eagels just postwar fake
5. Silly

I'll add Pathetic .... that's probably the most appropriate.

Looks like the same size and fonts as the bogus stamps used to make the SS dog tags.......
