Alpina Siegerin service watch of the Kriegsmarine, absolutely authentic signed therefore KM, from the Second World War with the legendary caliber 595 Wehrmacht movement, functional
Alpina is/was the manufacturer of this rare example; "Siegerin" was merely a signature requested and commissioned by the Wehrmacht/Navy and propaganda. There never was a "Siegerin" watch manufacturer.
Case diameter: 34mm, white dial with "KM" signature as used on Kriegsmarine service watches, well-preserved Arabic numerals, fluorescent hands and dot indices, indirect second at 6 o'clock, original and typical Wehrmacht service watch hands with complete original radium filling
The legendary Alpine movement caliber 595 is installed, identical to the Universal movement 262, a robust and widely used standard movement
You have to search for a long time to find an authentic service watch of the Kriegsmarine on the Internet
This rare piece of military watch history runs continuously (accuracy not tested) and has an authentic but age/use-related original condition with clear signs of wear
Such clearly visible signs of use - especially in salt water use on ships of the Kriegsmarine - are not a defect in a service watch of the Kriegsmarine, but rather increase the collector's value, as they prove that the watch was actually in front-line use on a warship and not somewhere in the office during the war.
EZ 1 - 2: runs and functions, visible signs of use and oxidation/salt water on case and back, but that is part of the authenticity of a service watch in WW2, "Siegerin" signed dial relatively well preserved
