Hi - I'm doing research into the A-7 timepiece produced by Longines and Meylan for the US Army in the 1930's.
I wondered if anyone here would be able to point me to a copy of the Military Specs Document for this watch,
I believe it is reference "27748", but not a hundred percent sure.
Also if anyone here would be able to help me understand how the watch was used for navigation.
Thanks - Eitan
