1940's Civitas German Military

NOTE: Watch is running no problem, but running a fast. Would need to be adjusted by a watch maker. Price reflects need for maintenance.  

This 1940s Civitas military-era watch is a strong example of wartime European tool-watch design, built with durability, legibility, and reliability as its core principles. Produced during the World War II period, it reflects the functional, no-nonsense aesthetic required for military service.

The dial features bold numerals, a clear minute track, and highly legible hands designed for quick time reading in demanding conditions. Natural aging across the dial adds authentic vintage character while preserving clarity. The compact case maintains the practical proportions typical of the era.

Powered by a manual-wind movement, this Civitas delivers dependable mechanical performance consistent with German military-style watches of the 1940s. Historically significant and increasingly collectible, it’s a compelling piece for enthusiasts of wartime horology and authentic military design.
