My Grandfather just gave me an interesting pocket watch. He said he purchased it from a guy who took it off a German Tank Commander. It has the word "Arsa" writen in capitals and underlined on the face. It has "D5309H" writen on the back. I've done some research and know that Arsa refers to Auguste Reymond, a swiss watch maker. And DH refers to "German Army." Any other information? Thanks a lot.

Hi Chris, I think you've found most of what there is to know, DH stands for "Deutche Heer". Thanks, Zaf
