Field Watch Chronicle tells the stories of military and field watches, and the people who wore them. It is written by the Field Watch Chronicle Team.
Who we are
We’re a team with a long-standing interest in military history and the watches that served in it. We care about where a watch came from, what it was built to do and how it held up in the field.
What we cover
Service stories, the heritage of military timekeeping, military specifications and government contracts, and the collectors who keep this history alive.
How we work
- We research each story using published histories, military specifications, manufacturer archives and reputable collector sources.
- We separate documented fact from anecdote, and say so when a story can’t be verified.
- We update articles when new information or sources come to light.
