    I've been using camellia oil recently with great result. It quick dry, odourless and less likely to affect patina compare to pecard. I use it to gently soften stiff or add strength to weak leather.

    World War 2 Nurses cape and garrison cap

    Yes so have I. Your sweeping statement is your reference to male collectors. Please don't take what I quoted you on out of context.

    World War 2 Nurses cape and garrison cap

    I have a cape like that. It is not ANC or any of the major female military service. However it is widely used in the homefront stateside by trainee nurse during the war so technically it is military in that sense because of the war and higher recruitment.

    World War 2 Nurses cape and garrison cap

    That is a bit sweeping. Although I have seen male sellers trying to fob unaware buyers that it is military rather than civilian.

    ALL ORIGINAL Irvin RAF type Jackets - Loving that Wolf in sheeps' clothing!

    Dubow has a size 38 tag but it is bigger and generous fit and longer torso more like a modern 38. My size is modern 36 and this is too big, bought it a few years ago, doesnt fit and put it away.

    I have asked the carer who briefly owned it if the owner has serviced it and they are not sure. The mechanism is in mint condition and dirt free. I tried a full wound and it is still ticking since 11.00pm on saturday, that is 32hrs ago. Let see if it reach 36hrs :)

    Thankyou but the watch works brilliant and accurate. The original owner never really got round to using it, likely the mechanism rarely if ever ran until now. The watch is practically new.

Still in its original box but box is a bit tatty. It is hardly worn at all, never been serviced as far as I know but work perfectly, case are like...

    Women Reenactors?

    Is it true the USMCWR has the best looking women in the US forces? I believe the WRNS had the prettiest looking ladies serving in the British forces.
