Don’t make sharp movements, and don’t touch other components in the movement especially the pendulum mechanism. All items are packed very well & should have no problems with arriving in good conditions. The 10th Panzer Division Frundsberg or 10. Panzer-Division Frundsberg was a German WW2 panzer division. The division was formed at the beginning of 1943 as a reserve for the expected Allied invasion of France. However, their first campaign was in Ukraine in April 1944. Afterwards, the unit was then transferred to the west, where it fought the Allies in France and at Arnhem. The division was moved to Pomerania, then fought south east of Berlin in the Lausitz area until the end of the war. The division received the honor title Frundsberg, which referred to the 16th Century German commander Georg von Frundsberg. The division was mainly formed from conscripts. It first saw action at Tarnopol in April 1944 and later took part in the relief of the German troops cut off in the Kamenets-Podolsky pocket. It was then sent to Normandy to counter the Allied landings, where, along with the Division Hohenstaufen, it took part in fighting against the Allied Operation Epsom. The division suffered heavy casualties and retreated into Belgium before being sent to rest and be reconstituted near Arnhem, where it soon had to fight the Allied parachute assault during Operation Market Garden at Nijmegen, in the Netherlands, when together with the 9th Panzer division it constituted the II Panzer Corps. After rebuilding, it fought in the Alsace in January 1945. It was then sent to the Eastern Front, where it fought against the Red Army in Pomerania and then Saxony. Encircled at the Halbe Pocket, the division had many losses but managed to break out of the encirclement and retreat through Moritzburg, before reaching the area of Teplice in Czechoslovakia, where the division surrendered to the US Army at the end of the war. The (RZM), formally located in Munich, was the first and eventually the primary Zeugmeisterei (quartermaster’s office), as well as the national material control office of WW2. It replaced the Wirtschaftsstelle, the purchasing agency of the Sturmabteilung. VERY RARE SWISS POCKET WATCH On the back of the watch inscription 10. Panzer Division Frundsberg & tactical sign.

This is in a white gold solid 14K case. The spring that the stem winds holds a good strong wind. The balance rotates and engages, but is pretty gunked up and moves really slow. It doesn’t run. Looks like someone had it set to run fast in an attempt to get it moving. I suspect that it is over oiled or dirty. Other than that I see no major mechanical issues with the movement.
