Also widely represented in the book are presentation watches bearing portraits of the royal family and high military commanders. The text provides detailed history of this traditional award of the Russian army, with guidelines and criteria for bestowing it. Among other useful information, there is a table approximating the number of issues per branch of service during 1907-1914.

The book shows award decrees and has examples of advertising materials by leading award watch manufacturers such as Paul Bure. Highly recommended!

We have only a single copy left, in brand new unused condition. There are some very minor corner bumps acquired in shipping, but the cover is perfect and fresh otherwise, and the interior pages are simply immaculate.
