Speaking of nazis, does it make you a nazi (or at least suspicious in the eyes of y'all horologists) if you wear a watch that resembles the ww2 german flieger watch? I mean, I only found out recently that my late dad's watch that I've been wearing a lot (a fortis flieger 24h) does. Just for the record, he hated germans more than anything.

Good question. I'd hope not TBH. What are the chances of you meeting someone who both knows what it is and thinks it's weird to wear it?

Yeah that's true I guess. I'm just not much of a connaisseur on watches and it felt a little weird when I found out that it resembles a nazi relic. But now it's just my dad's watch again in my eyes. Thanks for the reassurance.
