Hello,
Here in Japan, I have noticed many vintage West End Watch Co. watches for sale online, many for extremely cheap. There are some obvious redials and pretty rough exmaples, but even genuine-looking watches seem to be pretty reasonably priced for a water-resistant military-type watch of their time. I've been thinking about getting one from around the late 30s-early 40s, but I have had trouble figuring out how to reliably date them, and to learn what makes a model more or less desireable…
