I would put more value in your statements if the manufacture documented this and if some SF guys said yeah I remember them being given out back then.
I am not saying you are wrong but what supports your claim...... |
I totally agree. This is similar an ongoing topic on several watch forums regarding Rolex Submariners being issued to U.S. Military divers. The ONLY DOCUMENTED case of Rolex Subs being issued to U.S. Military divers are the prototype Sea Dwellers in the late '60's. There were, however, hundreds of Tudor ( Rolex's "economy" line) Subs issued to divers, primarily Navy, but some others, too. Then there where tons of PX purchase Rolex Subs used. Which has led to the myth of the issue watches. I suspect the " cup and flower fund" may possibly be responsible for the creation of a new military myth. However, anything is possible, it justs needs documentation.
