This watch was ordered by a British RAF bomber pilot, Flight Lieutenant Gerald A. D. Imeson, whilst a Prisoner of War in Stalag Luft III. It was sent to him at the camp via the International Red Cross in Geneva. He was the pilot of Wellington bomber R1219 of 101 Squadron that was shot down and crashed into the North Sea in October 1941. Stalag Luft III was the scene of the ‘Great Escape’ in 1944 where he was involved with tunnel preparations and allocated No. 172 in the escape plan. Early in 1945 he and all the other POWs in the camp were force-marched across Germany in extreme winter conditions on what became known as the ‘Long March’. This watch accompanied him throughout his ordeal as a POW until liberation in May 1945. Condition Report: Overall the watch is in good, original condition. The hand wound movement is currently running with a good action and the chronograph feature functions correctly. The original black dial has good patina with slight fading around the hour numerals, noticeable with an eyeglass. Original hands show very light pitting. The steel case is in good condition with slight bruising and scratches evident (as would be expected). One chronograph pusher has end plating worn away (the other was replaced by Rolex during a service in 1980). Leather strap and buckle are not original to the watch. As with all watches sold, we do not guarantee the accuracy or working of this watch and would recommend it is serviced before use. “Rolex have confirmed that their records show that Chronograph ref 3525, s/n 186052 was produced by them in 1941”.

India - Gandhi and Jewish holocaust Nazis publication 1939. Extremely rare publication on Mahatma Gandhi and the Holocaust. Two letters to Gandhi from Martin Buber and J. L. Magnes by the group The Bond Rubin Mass^ Jerusalem^ April 1939. First edition. Light blue stapled wrappers^ 44 pages. Contents include - 1. A letter to Gandhi from Martin Buber; 2. A letter to Gandhi from J L Magnes; 3. Gandhi’s statement. The letters are a response by two leading Jewish adherents of non-violence to Ghanhi’s advise to the Jews of Germany to adopt the tactics of Satyagraha (Passive Resistance) in the face of the Nazi persecution of Jews in Germany. In view of the Nazi persecution of the Jews in Germany^ Gandhi offered satyagraha as a method of combating oppression and genocide^ stating: “If I were a Jew and were born in Germany and earned my livelihood there^ I would claim Germany as my home even as the tallest Gentile German might^ and challenge him to shoot me or cast me in the dungeon; I would refuse to be expelled or to submit to discriminating treatment. And for doing this I should not wait for the fellow Jews to join me in civil resistance^ but would have confidence that in the end the rest were bound to follow my example. If one Jew or all the Jews were to accept the prescription here offered^ he or they cannot be worse off than now. And suffering voluntarily undergone will bring them an inner strength and joy” The publication stated `This conversation is the first between the Jews and Gandhi is the first between Israel and India. This is a significant moment in our eyes` Very scarce copy of this publication published in 1939.

He is a very drunken old profligate^ neither more nor less. Still he has made himself a great king; he has conquered a great many powerful enemies; he is remarkably just in his government; he has disciplined a large army; he hardly ever takes away life^ which is wonderful in a despot; and he is excessively beloved by his people.
