A number of renowned watch-makers were founded in the UK – but seem to have moved – or been purchased – by Swiss firms. Vertex was once British – but is now Swiss. We must place to one side (for the moment) the fact that the British MI6 spy – James Bond (007) – is being made to where a Zionist symbol in a new book. During WWII the Ministry of War designated that all British combat troops should be issued with “Watches, Wristlet, Waterproof” – and this is why the capital letters – “WWW” – were engraved on the reverse case:
I suspect the specific design varied with rank and duty. Nevertheless, the elite Glider-Landed Troops that fought during D-Day at Pegasus Bridge (in Caen) wore the type of robust watch discussed in the above linked article. When the gliders “hit” the ground it was usually with a tremendous force which often knocked the soldiers out for a few seconds. The men were trained like professional boxers to take the impact, recover, and deploy according to their training. Obviously, a stout watch was required that could a) tack this impact, and b) survive the intense combat which was assumed would follow (they had landed behind enemy lines).
A “vertex” is a point where two (or more) lines meet or intersect – a triangle possesses three vertices (plural of vertex) – one at each of its corners:
On the watch face below the VERTEX brand-name there is an “arrow” symbol – comprised of three-lines meeting (a concurrent vertex):
It has been suggested to me that this is an ancient symbol used by the British government to denote a number of different products, services, and buildings, purchased with public money (others have suggested a “disguised triangle” – but this seems to be reaching). If we now move on to the mechanical innards of the watch – the “mechanism” no less – then we discover the following arrangement:
An interesting question to ask is whether the British government was aware of what was going on inside the inner workings of the watch? Why were British soldiers (not all White or European) were asked to risk their lives wearing this religious symbol (linked to Zionism)? I acknowledge that there were a number of Jewish British soldiers – and that they were free to do as they please – but what about the vast majority of the others? I personally do not want to wear any religious symbol going into battle (or during peace-time for that matter – as it is not my religion). Of course, the Vertex Watch Company was founded in London in 1912 by Claude Lyons – who was Jewish – and started after he borrowed £1,000 from his father-in-law, Mr. Mayer. I am told that a number of Swiss watch companies today insert this symbol upon the innards of their watches – but never on the exterior – as it is thought this would adversely effect sales. The official line is that this overtly religious symbol denotes “quality” – and not necessarily the “return to the promise land of the chosen people”. You decide.
