Award Watches of the Russian Imperial Army. A.I.
Vilkov, C. 2004, Moscow. Russian text, hard cover, 111 pp.
Beautiful publication in full color, with excellent picture
quality, glossy paper. 11" x 8.5". Shows dozens of
examples
of pocket watches awarded for excellent marksmanship,
equestrian skills, sportsmanship or military school
graduation
with honors.
Also widely represented in the book are presentation
watches
bearing portraits of the royal family and high military
commanders. The text provides detailed history of this
traditional award of the Russian army, with guidelines and
criteria for bestowing it. Among other useful information,
there is a table approximating the number of issues per
branch
of service during 1907-1914.
The book shows award decrees and has examples of
advertising
materials by leading award watch manufacturers such as Paul
Bure. Highly recommended!
