I just had a look at ebay UK with world wide setting and had 810 hits for "military pocket watch". Ebay.com gave 650 hits and Ebay.ca gave 913 hits.

One thing I have noticed lately was that the category would change to what ebay though you were interested in. I always check that now and change back to "all categories".

Had one item on another list where the ebay number was given but wouldn't display when searched. Tried UK,US & Canada but no listing. I know it must be good as other US members were talking about it.

Maybe the word "military" has to go through the MI6/CSIS filters.

Had exactly that last week... Chap said he had 17pdr muzzle brake for sale... Got the listing number... Not found according to ebay uk, us and other sites... Search found nothing... He sent me screen shots of his auction... A friend in the usa verified the auction was live.

Muzzle brake turned out to be 6pdr and asking price was 2.5k usd... Gave it a miss.

However... Absolutely no way for me to see the listing from the uk... So can only assume there is censorship in place somewhere.
