manayunkman Posted April 3, 2019 Share #1 Posted April 3, 2019 I was in the right place at the right time when this fell together. With a 21 million serial number this would be 1916 or 17. The soldiers name is on the back of the watch and one of the photos. You can see he was in the Air Service. Case is Sterling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aznation Posted April 3, 2019 Share #21 Posted April 3, 2019 That's about all I could find on these two. There were no overseas US Army Transportations showing that either one went over there. Hope that helps. -- Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
