These companies were Buren, Cyma, Eterna, Grana, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Lemania, Longines, IWC, Omega, Record, Timor, and Vertex. The term 'Dirty Dozen', after the 1967 film, has been coined to describe these watches. It is estimated that approximately 150,000 watches were produced with around 8,000 examples delivered by Longines. Each was stamped with the military broad arrow mark and the initials WWW standing for 'Watch, Wrist, Waterproof'. The Longines model has latterly become known as the ‘Greenlander’, although the watch was never issued for the British North Greenland Expedition and the name derives from an erroneous attribution in a military watch book, as the author believed that the model was worn by soldiers on this expedition.Condition:Case and back: Micro-abrasions, small scratches and tiny dints, consistent with age and use.Crystal: Some small scratches.Dial: Fair to good with some tiny losses to print.
