Following the success of Marine Nationale: Vintage Military Watches of the French Navy, this companion volume dives even deeper into the world of watches issued to the French Navy (MN).
In Marine Nationale: REGISTRE, WATCHISTRY brings together an unprecedented set of 175 issued timepieces from passionate Collectors around the globe. Where the first book explored 34 MN examples from the author’s own collection, this new volume broadens the lens—documenting a wider variety of brands and references of these coveted pieces.
The title "REGISTRE" pays homage to Yves Pastre, the MN watchmaker whose meticulous service ledger set the modern standard for provenance. Each piece in this book is presented with notes from its current custodian, along with observations from WATCHISTRY, to preserve and share this important field of military watch history.
Whether you're an established collector, a newcomer to vintage military watches, or simply intrigued by the stories timepieces can tell, Marine Nationale: REGISTRE offers an encyclopedic, photo-rich journey into the legacy, nuance, and ongoing discovery that define MN collecting.
As with the first volume, the guiding philosophy remains: these watches carry stories—some clear, some still unfolding. This book is both a record and an invitation to keep exploring.
