First buy outside the USA got it from eMedals in Canada shipped FedEx waiting for a tariff letter from FedEx maybe I will luck out and not get one. But been wanting one of these. It was made in 1944 in France or England out of zinc. And a stick pin and soviet era set of pilot badges and a Czech issued Longines pilot watch.

Here is a photo of the back of the Longines with issue marks military property with issue numbers and an issued Eterna with issue marks on case back from the Czech military. Sometimes on the Eterna they will also have cross cannon mark on the lugs of the case plus issue numbers on case back. You can look at these and think about these pilots who left their country to fly for the British and carry on the fight after their country was invaded by Germany.

I kind of got the pilot badges to go along with my two issued pilot watches. One badge is from after the war probably soviet? But the first badge at top is the one I just added to the collection. These are hard to find the ones made of silver with makers marks are really hard to find so settled for this one that some pilot had tome craftsman make in the field out of zinc was told around 1944 maybe made in France.
