      Hi,

      the most famous original SS watch is the one made for the SS artillery, check below.
      99.99% of the SS watches proposed on sale are fantasy/fake/pimped models.

      See You

          Vince do you know why the outer second numbers are correct while the inner dial numbers are reversed? I have never seen anything like that before.

                Hi,

                Mike was quicker than I, i will maybe do an extensive topic on the one and only SS-Beobachtungsuhr, which was produced to a few hundred of copies, and an original is worth dozen of thousand of euros.

                The probability to find an original is ultra low. Period.
                Do not lose your time searching, really.

                The SS-Beobachtungsuhr is the only official watch made for the Waffen-SS.
                The Waffen-SS may have used other watches, but they were privately purchased.

                Please notice that the diameter of this special watch is 6.5cm, and there is only one design for it.
                Below 4 other originals.
                The first two are the first variation (with red pointer) from 1941.

                See You

                      Hi,

                      it was the famous firm A. Lange & Söhne from Glashütte (South of Dresden).

                      Below is a "famous" picture, the monthly order from late 1943 made by the SS-Führerungshauptamt, Amt II.
                      This order was for the SS-Artillerie-schule (I) Glau, 22 watches (with their serial number).
                      Unit price : 360 RM.

                      See You
