Cyma WWW "Dirty Dozen" – Military Issue c.1945 A textbook example of Cyma’s contribution to the legendary British “Dirty Dozen,” this 1945 WWW is a robust and historically important military watch delivered to the Ministry of Defence during the final years of WWII. Cyma produced roughly 20,000 units — one of the higher-volume contracts — yet each surviving example tells its own story, often with unique dial aging that makes the brand a favourite among seasoned collectors. This particular example features the largest case of the Dirty Dozen group at 38 mm, giving it an especially strong wrist presence while retaining its utilitarian charm. As with all WWW pieces, it was built to strict military specification: black Arabic dial, luminous markers, fixed lug bars, fully stainless-steel construction, and the Broad Arrow (Pheon) markings confirming government property. Cyma WWWs offer exceptional value within vintage military collecting — highly wearable, mechanically robust, and visually distinctive. This is precisely the kind of honest, character-rich watch we love sourcing. Condition Case: Very good overall condition with strong, well-defined case lines. Caseback engravings remain deep and fully legible. Fixed bars are intact. Crown & Dust Cover: Retains its original crown and inner dust cap. Dial: Clean and aged to a tropical colour, free from major blemishes. Movement: Serviced and running smoothly and keeping time within acceptable vintage standards. Strap: Olive-green NATO strap.
