This is me in the middle of building a sundeck off the living room of our house in Bowie, Maryland, USA. (Click HERE to see a pic of the finished structure and patio!)

    I have been collecting military watches since 1982 and will admit to owning over 150 issue pieces including US, British, Dutch, Czech, New Zealand, Rhodesian, German, Canadian, French, Swedish, Australian, Saudi and Russian. I try to limit my collecting to military issue wristwatches but I've been known to have my resolve weakened by the sight of a special military pocketwatch. I'm a member of NAWCC (National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors) and the Society of Military Horologists.

  While various large and small projects around the house keep me busy, I seem to find time for another avocation -- I build, repair and upgrade PC's. I've been doing that almost as long as I've been collecting watches. And I do have a real job during the day with a large suburban school system in Maryland. My wife, Jean, is a teacher in the same school system.

   I am a watch collector and not a watch dealer. The watches on this site are duplicates in my collection or watches in which I no longer have an interest. Some I am posting for friends who also collect military watches. So the profit margins are small if they exist at all -- we buy, sell and trade for the fun of it. Hope you see something you like!
