Could this Seal Team 1 Commando be wearing my 5513?

Whilst doing some research on the Vietnam War, I came across this photograph depicting A U.S. Navy Seal Team One member, during a search and destroy operation in one of the Mekong Delta's swamp jungles, 1968.

Looks like he's wearing a 5513 on a NATO!

Probably taken in the Plain of Reeds area.

I wonder if he's worrying about scratching his crystal...

Unless the photo was reversed, the watch looks upsidedown on the wrist.

Watch kind of looks like a Tornek-Rayville TR-900.

Here's a pic of one I found from Christie's... Cool looking timepiece.

Thanks, but if I were to buy one it would have to be the Real McCoy.

So you don't like corvus watches Nicko?

It's not your watch at the solider, the minute hand looks ok at his watch.
