This watch features a highly visible art deco style illuminated dial, sub-dial seconds, and nickel-plated brass case. Utilitarian, simplistic, and fashionable; this watch was an everyday essential for America’s fighting men. With specifications adopted in 1942, these watches were across the globe in all theaters of operations. Ordnance Department watches, though designed for the Army, were ordered and supplied by every branch during the war to include the Navy, Marine Corps, and Army Air Corps. The \"OG\" grade 10609 produced by Waltham was originally a 7-9 jewel field watch, but ours has been upgraded to a 21-jewel mechanical movement for modern reliability while still maintaining original features. Whether you were a Seabee, WAC, nurse, ground crewman, or GI in a foxhole, these watches were a tried-and-true workhorse.\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOurs features the following details:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Marine grade nickel-plated brass cases, just as originals were produced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• 21-jewel Sea-Gull mechanical movement, modified for hand-wound use only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Multi-layered Swiss Super-LumiNova C3 lume, color matched to original radium examples.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Non-reflective vintage style textured dial paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Fire-blued stainless-steel hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Fully period correct packaging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Limited two-year warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Timeworn","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53432560288027,"sku":null,"price":450.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1044\/0091\/2667\/files\/e5d13e3c-6498-4366-ae72-010318a227a8_07313632-5eb9-4b69-92b4-e27ca4c32f1c.png?v=1787369715","url":"https:\/\/timewornwatches.com\/products\/ordnance-department-10609","provider":"Timeworn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
