Upon further\u00a0inspection, it became abundantly clear that the piece belonged in the WW1 Centennial Store. The Swiss-made watch is designed and provided by Col &amp; MacArthur of Brussels. It is called &#8220;Armistice\u00a01918.&#8221; There are only 1918 of these numbered watches to be made and then they will be gone. Rumour has it that French President Emmanuel Macron already owns one of the first. It is certainly a piece worthy of heads of state.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;\">With Veteran&#8217;s Day 2018 fast approaching in the US (Nov. 11), this year we join in commemorating the WW1 Armistice of 1918 &#8211; The end of the Great War. We invite you to learn more about this timepiece and consider acquiring\u00a0one or more as a gift or for your own collection.\u00a0 Purchase includes a 60 character inscription on the back.
