Before getting into this special and one-of-a-kind GP I have an announcement! Friday March 3rd at 6pm Pacific I will be hosting an @ebaywatches eBay Live Commerce event (https://www.ebay.com/ebaylive/events/HILVfFOdK06hXcDP) which will feature roughly 30 watches. It is an exciting new format for eBay that will only grow bigger over time. I want to make it mandatory viewing and so I will be offering my best prices during the event; you'll have to watch to hear but the prices will be very motivating. Now on to this vintage Girard-Perregaux Aero-Compax ref 22441 caliber 285 35mm with a copper colored color change patina dial. It has an engraving to Edward H. Parmer and his number with the Army Air Force (the predecessor to USAF) with an August 4th 1944 date which puts it squarely into World War II. So while it wasn't an officially assigned watch it is one that certainly served. The dial is in great condition; it has just had a total color change due to the radium on the hands and numerals. The case is in equally excellent condition, unpolished and with all bevels intact. It is truly one of the most eye-catching and unique Aero-Compax watches to be found anywhere. As always it can be bought on eBay https://www.ebay.com/itm/155431725448 - - - - - - - - - #GirardPerregaux #GP #UG #Aerocompax #universalgeneve #pilotswatch #worldwarII #wwII #alwayscheckthecaseback #vintagewatch #patina #patinadial #radium #armyairforce #aaf #unpolished #pumppushers #rarewatch #watch #watches https://www.instagram.com/p/CpQUZpjp8QQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
