Seiko Military Issued

Hey guys,

Just wanted to share my Seiko "Issued" collection. I have some others with provenance, but these have the issue marks!

From: RAN, IDF S13, RAF, Persian Royal Army, Mac V Sog

Always on the hunt for more!

I'll work on some pictures and maybe a brief synopsis of each. This is just the tip of the iceberg in terms of my military collection. I have Citizen/Tissot/Orient/Casio/Timex!

I'll work on it over the next few days.
