the descriptive code used by the British Army to identify it as a piece of equipment issued by the government.
These watches began being manufactured and issued to the British Forces in early 1945.
Extra Points

What we think
Only around 10,000 Buren WWW watches were made for the British Army during the Second World War, making good, original examples highly sought after by collectors and can often be difficult to find.
