    Yes. You can find them all over eBay. They take old watches and mess with them . It's a shame some of the watches are very nice.

    Certainly fake additions. Can they be removed? it would be a nice old watch otherwise and could well have been in use during the war.

    The Case of the watch looks to be in pretty decent condition. Doxa was a not bad watch and it may be worth removing the movement and seeing if the corny stickers could be easily peeled off. But, I would also advise that you check the Movement when you pop the back off of it to first see that it is,indeed, a Doxa watch movement inside the case and not some $1.25 cent Chinese junker. If it Is a Doxa and the stickers will Not come off easily, you could also look into have the dial refinished. I've had several vintage watch dials redone and they generally turn out looking like brand new again. This dial looks to be a Radium dial(glow in the dark number markers), so be aware that if you Do have it redone, that they will Not include fresh Radium markers on it, as it is no longer allowed to use them due to the radioactivity.
