 Just browsed the net and saw this very nice military watch TERRA CIELO MARE also known as TCM. This is the "47 JOE PETRALI" model:



From the official site's description:

Key facts
On March 13th 1937, the Italian-American motorcycle-racer “Smokey” Joe Petrali was going to rewrite motorcycle history. On a Harley Davidson Knuckelhead he broke the world speed record for motorcycles and set the new mark to 219.160 km/h (136.183 mph). Future generations of drivers have attempted to beat that record. This phenomenal record and nearly 70 victories in national races gave him a place of honour in the Racing Hall of Fame.

TCM dedicates it’s latest creation in the “Terra Line” to this extraordinary pilot. This dynamic, sport watch is characterized by the special features of the crown and dial pointing at 2 o’ clock that eases the process of telling time whilst riding a heavyweight motorcycle. The “Joe Petrali 47 mm” is powered by a ETA 2824/2 calibre in a highly polished case, in remembrance of the chrome on Harley Davidson machines.

WOW EH?!?!?!
