There must be loads as you say, sat in drawers etc locally.

Mike, if know about watches, how easy and how expensive would it be to get a new glass for my Taids old pocket watch that got accidentally broken?

Mikethewatch:
Simple job.
 But depending on size, type  and material price will vary.
If you wish, I will PM you my details and you can bring it to me to look at.
I am sure it can be replaced

Fester:
So we seem to have gone from Militaria to Watches..... and no one gives a damn about my 1871 sword.

brumbob:
oh, all right then, how do you know it's 1871, we need a pic of the engraving as proof it is dated  :P

I've got a cavalry sword in my loft, about 4ft long, going a bit rusty, no idea how old it is, unfortunately the sheath is a bit bent and the sword will only go half way in.
Also got loads of shell cases, some have been made into ornaments, a hand grenade devoid of contents, a german helmet (no liner) and a couple of medals (not won by me)
